And that is it - Villa beat Wigan 2-0 at home to remain unbeaten in seven league matches this season and end a run of four PL draws.
90+3'
Di Santo strikes for goal, well saved by Given again.
90+2'
The keeper claims the corner easily enough.
90+1'

Moses with a low effort that deflects off Sammon - and Given scrambles to his near post to tip around brilliantly!
90'
Four minutes to be added on.
89'
A long ball from Moses that is nowhere near Di Santo. Wigan out of ideas.
88'
Given has not had much to do this afternoon. He might have had to if the ref had awarded the Latics a penalty earlier in the half... Di Santo is probably still fuming.
87'
Not much happening out on the pitch as the game is slowed down - which suits the Villans down to the ground. Given out to claim.
86'

Villa's final change: a standing ovation for Agbonlahor as he makes way for Andreas Weimann.
84'

Wigan's final change: Conor Sammon on for McCarthy.
82'
Moses with space but his ball is over the bar as Wigan remain frustrated.
81'
All the play in the Villa half as the game enters its final stages. McLeish will expect his side to be tough and see it out.
80'
Only two other clubs have unbeaten records at Villa Park in the PL era – Oldham Athletic (2 matches) and Barnsley (1). Wigan have a job if they are to remain the third of these.
79'
Maloney unlocks the home defence for Watson to cross after springing the offside trap on the left... it is ahead of everyone again.
78'
Maloney has to slide to concede a throw-in instead of a goal-kick. At the other end Delph plays through for Agbonlahor - it is miles too hard! Poor pass.
77'
McArthur bends a delicious ball between goalkeeper and defence from the right for Wigan, but there is no one on the end of it.
76'
Villa have had 15 attempts on goal to Wigan's 10.
75'
Aston Villa are looking likely to be unbeaten in their opening seven PL matches of the season for the fourth time. They are unbeaten in their last nine PL matches – their best run since a 10-match streak from January to March 2010.
