Indeed Brighton and Hove Albion's heavy defeat away to Aston Villa was a very interesting and entertaining match to watch. Brighton before the game bad were better than the host in terms of overall performance in the English Premier League since the start of the season as they had already won 5 and most just one of their first 6 league games of the season while Aston Villa had won four and lost two league games before the game. So many had expected the match to be a very difficult one for Aston Villa but instead they made the game look very easy from the first half of the game.
Ollie Watkins was just on fire in that game as he scored three goals and had one assist against Brighton.

It was a historic win for Aston Villa. The win has given them an advantage in the Premier League moving them to the fourth position. If they should continue like this, by the end of the season they will finish top 3 in the league. I commend the coaching style of Unai Emery. Football fans who watched the match knows that his style of coaching is a contributing factor to the star performances of his team. Also these players Martinez, Konsa, Luiz, Kamara, Diaby, and Watkins are strong pillars in the team. With them, I know that Aston Villa can challenge the top four teams in the Premier League.

This can only happen if they’re consistent enough till the end of the season which I doubt so even if Unai Emery’s coaching skills can earn him that. The match against Brighton was a total shock to me because I was not expecting them to have won them so easily or with much goal margin as they did. Brighton are in a very good form currently, so I wasn’t expecting a big defeat for them looking how their performance have been over the few last matches played. This should be their biggest defeat of the season and also the biggest win for Aston Villa this season. I hope they get over this and improve in their next match, such an awful day for them.
