The first FA Cup Final between the two was in 1887, which Villa won 2–0 at Kennington Oval with goals from Archie Hunter and Dennis Hodgetts for their first FA Cup. The following year, both teams became founder members of The Football League. They met first in a league fixture on 19 January 1889, Villa winning 2–0 at home, and again the next week in a 3–3 draw. The two teams met in two further FA Cup finals in the 19th century, a 3–0 win for West Bromwich Albion in 1892 and a 1–0 win for Aston Villa in 1895.
