Aston Villa boss Alex McLeish believes that his side can still avoid relegation after their goalless draw at West Brom.

Aston Villa boss Alex McLeish has insisted that his side's Premier League survival is still in their hands following a goalless draw at West Bromwich Albion.

Despite both teams creating a number of chances in front of goal, neither could apply the finishing touch to claim the three points.

"We still have it in our hands and we can make it work for us regardless of other results," McLeish told Sky Sports News.

"We would like another win in our final two matches."

The draw has edged Villa four points clear of the relegation zone with two games to play.
