Villa remain in top-four frame

Gabriel Agbonlahor and a penalty from James Milner secured top-four hopefuls Aston Villa FC a 2-0 Premier League win at Hull City AFC which increases the home side's relegation worries. Agbonlahor put Martin O'Neil's team ahead in the 13th minute before Milner made sure of the points late on after being tripped by former Villa midfielder George Boateng. Villa move into sixth as a result, three points behind fourth-placed Tottenham Hotspur FC having played a game more, while Hull remain in the relegation zone, three points from safety.
