Aston Villa's staggering 11th consecutive home win solidifies top-four ambitions
Posted : 22 October 2023
Aston Villa, under the guidance of Unai Emery, showcased their continued dominance at home with an impressive 4-1 victory over West Ham, marking their 11th consecutive home win. The Brazilian midfielder Douglas Luiz was the standout performer, notching two crucial goals on either side of the halftime break, extending his remarkable streak of scoring in six consecutive home games.
Despite Jarrod Bowen's attempt to revive West Ham's hopes, Ollie Watkins sealed the deal with a spectacular solo goal, and Leon Bailey added a fourth goal in the final minute.
This victory propelled Aston Villa to the fifth position in the Premier League, firmly establishing them as top-six contenders. Their remarkable home form, with 11 straight wins, places them just two victories away from equaling the club's record.
Notably, they've consistently netted at least three goals in each of their first four Premier League matches at Villa Park for the first time since the 1920-21 season. Aston Villa's impressive point tally, only surpassed by Manchester City, Arsenal, and Liverpool since Emery's arrival, demonstrates their strong push for a top-four finish, making it clear that they're a force to be reckoned with on their home turf.
With this incredible form, a title challenge may seem improbable, but Villa is undeniably flying high, and Unai Emery's influence continues to yield significant results. Their recent stats reflect their determination, with the highest point total in 25 years after nine games, setting them on the path to a top-four finish and highlighting their exceptional performance at home.
