The home side led at half-time through Jordan Ayew’s header but Danny Welbeck equalised with a header of his own in the second half.
It’s the fifth time in a row that this fixture has ended 1-all.
Tonight, Aston Villa can go top of the table this evening if they can beat bottom club Sheffield United.
Villa are unbeaten in their last 14 games at home against their opponents since a 2-0 defeat in January 1966.
