Villa in Anfield stunner
Liverpool slumped to their second Premier League defeat in nine days as they lost 3-1 to Aston Villa to put their title credentials firmly on the line.[LNB]Villa produced a defiant, organised display and deserved their first win at Anfield since 2001.[LNB]The result also ended Liverpool's 31-match unbeaten home league record stretching back to December 2007, when Manchester United were the last winners at Anfield.[LNB]But the spotlight will now be on Liverpool, who only lost twice in the league last season and still did not win the title.[LNB]The margin for error is now very fine. You rarely win the crown by losing more than five games in a season, and Liverpool's hopes could already have suffered a mortal blow.[LNB]A Lucas own goal and a Curtis Davies header saw Villa 2-0 up at the break. Fernando Torres pulled one back but an Ashley Young penalty settled the points.
