Steven Gerrard's Aston Villa side defeated Molde 3-1 as they continued their preparation to face Leeds United on Wednesday February 9.
The game at Villa Park will be the first time Gerrard has face Marcelo Bielsa as a manager and the Villa manager has used the break in Premier League action to put his side through a couple of friendlies.
Whilst Bielsa has been content with multiple murderball sessions at Thorp Arch, their next opponents have played and beaten Brentford and now the Norwegian side.
