However, Morgan Rogers leveled the score just before halftime with a stunning strike, resuscitating Villa.

In the second half, the hosts continued their comeback, with goals from Ollie Watkins and Leon Bailey sealing the win and taking them six points clear of Tottenham in the race for a top-four finish.

Despite fatigue from their midweek European game, Villa were strong enough to hold their ground at the Villa Park.
