Check out the latest Aston Villa top four odds as Unai Emery’s stormed to a 4-1 victory over West Ham United on Sunday afternoon to move back into the top five. 

Douglas Luiz Shines Again In 4-1 Win Over Hammers

The Brazilian midfielder scored his fifth goal of the season with a first time strike to give Villa the perfect start, rewarding Emery’s side after their strong performance in the first half.


Luiz netted again shortly after the break to make it 2-0 with a cooly converted penalty after Ezri Konsa was fouled in the box by Lucas Paqueta.

However, David Moyes’s side were determined not to go out without a fight and pulled one back after Jarrod Bowen’s effort was deflected into the back of the net.

But late goals from Ollie Watkins and substitute Leon Bailey helped ensure that the Villains picked up their 11th Premier League home win in a row.


It was yet another spectacular performance from Emery’s men who look a completely different side to what they were 12 months ago as the Spaniard approaches a year in charge at Villa Park on Tuesday.

Emery also became one of ten managers in league history to average at least two points per game in a single spell with a club.

The others to do so are Alex Ferguson with Manchester United, Jose Mourinho with Chelsea (both spells), Avram Grant and Carlo Ancelotti with Chelsea, Jurgen Klopp with Liverpool, and Manuel Pellegrini, Pep Guardiola and Roberto Mancini with Manchester City.

The former Arsenal boss has confirmed himself as one of Europe’s top managers during his time in the West Midlands and his side only look like they will get better.
