Aston Villa are winless in the Premier League and yet to score a goal. Four matches can be a blip but the pressure is on as they face Sunderland on Sunday.

Villa finally scored on Tuesday. Harvey Elliott didn’t catch his shot properly but it had enough legs to hit the net thanks to a goalkeeping error in the third round of the Carabao Cup at Brentford. Villa ended up going out on penalties to add to the black cloud engulfing the club.

There were some green shoots in the performance at Brentford. Villa play with a certain shape but manager Unai Emery made some noteworthy adjustments that seemed, slowly, to be squeezing improvement from the system and the players.

How that manifests in a Premier League fixture is anyone’s guess. The margin for error is getting smaller by the week.
