Aston Villa will be honouring their 150th anniversary with a special black kit that will be worn in the club's FA Cup fixture at home against West Ham on Friday.

The kit will be based on the first kits worn by the club before they transitioned to their more traditional claret and blue colours.

Villa became the first team in the UK to put a crest on their playing kit and their commemorative kit will have a crest inspired by the original that has been authentically redrawn.
