Aston Villa returned to winning ways in the Premier League with a 2-1 victory over Leicester City on Saturday, thanks to goals from Amadou Onana and Jhon Duran.
The hosts, Leicester City, who are still searching for their first win since their promotion back to the top flight, were more threatening in the second half. However, Duran's 63rd-minute header seemed to have sealed their fate.
Leicester managed to get a lifeline with Facundo Buonanotte's goal, but failed to secure a point as Villa held on comfortably. Villa now has six points from three games, while Leicester sits at one point.
