Hull City vs. Aston Villa: Head-to-head record and past meetings

Head-to-head record

Previous meetings: 36

Draws: 11

Hull City and Aston Villa have faced each other a total of 36 times across all competitions, and it is the Lions who lead the head-to-head record with 19 victories to the Tigers' six, while 11 draws have also been played out between the two teams.

Each of their first four meetings took place in the FA Cup. Villa won the first two ties by a 3-0 scoreline in February 1908 and January 1926, before they required a replay to edge past the Tigers 2-1 in the third round in January 1956.

Villa also won two FA Cup third-round ties in January 1999 (3-0) and January 2006 (1-0), as well as one second-round success in the Full Members' Cup in November 1989 (2-0), but all of the remaining fixtures between these two sides have taken place in the league.

Between December 1959 and January 1988, Hull and Villa butted heads on 16 occasions in the old Division Two and there was little to separate the two teams, with the latter winning six, drawing five and losing five.

Villa celebrated their biggest victory to date against Hull in August 1974 when Sammy Morgan scored a hat-trick in an emphatic 6-0 home victory. 14 years later, the Lions won the same fixture by a 5-0 scoreline, with Warren Aspinall and Andy Gray both netting braces.

In the Premier League era, Hull and Aston Villa have faced each other nine times in the top tier.

The pair most recently played out a goalless draw in the third matchweek of the 2026-27 Premier League season, with the result lifting Hull City into third place in the table.
