Report | Wolves 2-1 Aston Villa (wolves.co.uk)

A rocket from Jonny and an own goal from Aston Villa defender Ashley Young gave Wolves a crucial win in a full-blooded West Midlands clash at Molineux, ...

However, with Wolves seemingly in control Villa were given a lifeline after Sa was adjudged to have fouled Watkins inside the box by the referee just moments after the Englishman had missed another one-on-one between the pair. A golden chance soon fell Villa’s way, but Watkins was unable to find the target with only Sa to beat. Just moments later, Wolves had yet another chance with Villa leaving plenty of space behind their backline as the half drew to a close. Leander Dendoncker and Marcal both saw their crosses dealt with by a claret and blue shirt, before Trincao suffered a similar fate after he neatly turned Jacob Ramsey inside the box and Silva’s subsequent shot was blocked at close range. Another Villa slip, this time from Ezri Konsa, ensured the ball reached Podence, but his shot was excellently blocked by McGinn, who had recovered from his earlier mistake. With Wolves’ advantage cut in half, Villa piled on the pressure as the game came to a close, and tempers overboiled, but they couldn’t find a last-gasp equaliser, meaning all three points stayed in Wolverhampton.

Wolves vs Aston Villa: Bruno Lage's side is all but assured of a top-half finish, which is precisely what Steven Gerrard and Co., have in their sights.

11 games into the season, Aston Villa sported a 3W-1D-7L record (10 points), good enough for 16th in the table at the time. As for Aston Villa (36 points), finishing in the top half would be a fantastic result in Gerrard’s first (partial) season in charge.

Wolves 2 Aston Villa 1 - Report (expressandstar.com)

Wolves secured local bragging rights and a league double over Villa as they survived a late scare to return to winning ways.

Watkins came over and stole the ball and after Wolves defended the chance, the players were incensed with Watkins for his lack of sportsmanship. He got in behind Boly and Conor Coady one and one through ball had him in on goal on the left side. A lovely Marcal cross caused chaos in the Villa area and Young, under pressure from Trincao at the back post, stooped down to head into his own net. He delayed his shot and was dispossessed, Silva then had a shot blocked before the ball fell to Jonny who smashed a half-volley into the top corner. He looked for Daniel Podence on the left and a slip from Ezri Konsa put the forward in on goal. There was a loud and hostile atmosphere around Molineux as the home fans made themselves heard, but the Wolves players got off to a sloppy start.

Southgate can avoid repeat mistake by watching Wolves vs Villa ... (Birmingham Live)

Four English centre-backs were on display for Gareth Southgate in Wolverhampton Wanderers' 2-1 win over Aston Villa on Saturday.

The 24-year-old won more aerial duels than anyone else on the pitch and contained £30 million Villa forward Leon Bailey with ease. Villa captain Mings filled his own supporters with dread when he casually tried to outwit Fabio Silva moments after Wolves had taken the lead, and he would have gifted the hosts a second goal without Emiliano Martinez’s intervention. The obvious rival for Kilman is fellow leftie Mings, who has become a regular in Southgate’s squads over the last three years.

Wolves vs Aston Villa: Wolves' European push continues with win (NBC Sports)

Wolves vs Aston Villa: Bruno Lage's side staked a two-goal lead for themselves before holding on for dear life and a 2-0 victory at Molineux Stadium.

They won 12 of 13 tackles attempted in the first half, and they got even contributions from virtually everyone on the field: only one player, center back and captain Conor Coady, failed to win a tackle in the first half. As for Aston Villa (36 points – 9th place), they are level with Leicester City and Southampton in the almighty battle for a top-half finish. Ollie Watkins pulled one back and gave Aston Villa hope that an equalizer could be had, but Wolves held firm for their third win in four Premier League games.

Lage made 'very easy' Wolves decision as Gerrard fell into Villa trap (Birmingham Live)

Wolverhampton Wanderers completed the double over Aston Villa with a 2-1 win at Molineux on Saturday.

If it hadn’t been for Emiliano Martinez, last-ditch defensive tackles and, in Leander Dendoncker’s case, absolutely woeful finishing, Wolves would have been four or five goals to the good at half-time. When Villa produced a smash-and-grab performance at Molineux last season, their goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez was the clear man of the match. The Portuguese was also dominant on set pieces to claim crosses and relieve the pressure on his defence. Sa didn’t have a great deal to do in the first half, but he responded superbly when called into action by Watkins in the second half. However, now the grey clouds of injury and AFCON involvement have lifted, Lage has an embarrassment of riches in that position. Jonny Castro Otto and Ashley Young (OG) goals put Wolves two-nil up at half-time and despite Ollie Watkins' 85th minute penalty teeing up a tense finish at Molineux, there was no repeat of the collapse against Leeds United from Bruno Lage's side.
