Aston Villa returned to winning ways with a convincing victory over relegation-threatened West Ham, boosting their Champions League hopes. John McGinn opened the scoring, and Ollie Watkins ended a six-match goal drought by doubling the lead in the 68th minute.
Villa dominated the game, creating multiple chances, including a VAR-overturned penalty for Watkins. The win leaves Villa fourth in the Premier League, five points clear of fifth-placed Liverpool, while West Ham remain 18th, just above the drop zone.
