Aston Villa wins: 59
Having both competed at the top level of English football for many decades, Liverpool vs. Aston Villa has been a staple fixture in the 20th and 21st centuries, as well as being played regularly in the late 1800s.
There have now been 204 official matches between the Reds and the Lions, and the Merseyside giants have won just over 50% of them - prevailing in 103 meetings - while Villa have triumphed in 59 and another 42 clashes have ended level.
The most recent of those stalemates came at Villa Park at the end of the 2023-24 season, where Jurgen Klopp's last away game in charge of the Reds ended in a 3-3 spectacular, one in which some customary Jhon Duran heroics saw the Lions fight back from 3-1 down in the final 10 minutes.
As exceptional as Villa's fightback was on that day, that six-goal stalemate stretched their winless run against Liverpool to eight matches in all competitions, as Klopp oversaw a comfortable 3-0 triumph at Anfield during the early stages of the 2023-24 season, before the Reds made it nine with a 2-0 success in November 2024.
In fact, Villa have to go all the way back to October 2020 for their most recent victory over Liverpool, that unforgettable 7-2 obliteration during the behind-closed-doors era, where it was truly a real shame to have no fans present at Villa Park.
A couple of months later, a coronavirus-ravaged and embryonic Lions side memorably equalised against Liverpool in the FA Cup through Louie Barry, before the Reds eventually flexed their muscles and came away with a 4-1 victory.
Also boasting six wins from their last seven Premier League home matches against Villa, Liverpool have gone over 10 years without losing a top-flight game to the Lions at Anfield, going down 1-0 in September 2014 courtesy of a Gabriel Agbonlahor effort.
Four Liverpool players have also reached double figures in goals against Villa - Robbie Fowler (14), Steven Gerrard (13), Roger Hunt (10) and Ian Rush (10) - while current wing wizard Mohamed Salah boasts eight of his own.
