Leeds 0-0 Aston Villa: Four things you might have missed - Tyrone Mings record & more

Aston Villa made it three games unbeaten in the Premier League after their underwhelming 0-0 draw with Leeds United at Elland Road.

Steven Gerrard’s side were the better of the two teams, registering seven shots on target to the Whites’ one.

Luis Sinisterra saw red after a second bookable offence just three minutes into the second half. The winger didn’t take enough yards for a Villa’s free-kick resulting in a second yellow card and his dismissal.

Villa was without Boubacar Kamara and Lucas Digne, the former sustained a knee injury against Southampton last time out, while the latter sustained an ankle problem on international duty for France.

Ludwig Augustinsson replaced Digne at left-back, his debut for the club, but was withdrawn before the break after picking up a hamstring injury.

The Villans will be frustrated to not come away with all three points on the road given the amount of chances created.

They put in a solid defensive display as well, leading to the Whites’ having just one shot on target over 90 minutes.

Philippe Coutinho went closest for Gerrard’s team, hitting the post with an acrobatic effort in the second half, while Ollie Watkins put the rebound wide.

The result gives Villa their first point away from home this campaign and is their second game with back-to-back clean sheets.

Who wasn’t involved?

Matty Cash joined Kamara and Digne in the absentees list, while Diego Carlos remained unavailable due to a long-term injury.

The former suffered a hamstring injury against Southampton, but will return to training on Monday.

Mings milestone

Despite the underwhelming result the game was one to remember for Tyrone Mings, who made his 200th league appearance on Sunday afternoon.

The centre-back has featured in 128 games in the top flight for Villa and Bournemouth, while making 72 appearances for both clubs and Ipswich Town in the Championship.

Augustinsson debut

Augustinsson made his debut for the Villans on Sunday afternoon, though it was downcast after the left-back sustained a hamstring injury in added time in the first half and was substituted as a result.

The 28-year-old arrived on a season-long loan from Sevilla in the summer with Villa having an option to buy him at the end of the season.

Jesse Marsch ban

Leeds was without manager Jesse Marsch in the dugout after he received a one-match ban following his breach of the FA’s Rule E3 in the match against Brentford.

The American also received a £10,000 fine for his behaviour and language used after his team weren’t awarded a penalty against the Bees.
