Andrew Hunter (August 1864 in Joppa, Ayrshire, Scotland – 19 June 1888 in Australia) was a Scottish footballer known for scoring Aston Villa's first goal in the FA Cup.

He also played for Ayr Thistle, Third Lanark and Vale of Leven, before coming to England.[1] Like his more famous brother, Archie, who captained Aston Villa in the same period, he died young from a heart attack.[2] Another brother, John, was a Scotland international.[3][4]
