Nottingham Forest обыграл Aston Villa 2-1 на стадионе Villa Park, оставив команду Унаи Эмери все еще в поисках первой победы в сезоне Премьер-Лиги. Вновь Oliver Glasner обыграл Emery, который остается без побед в восьми матчах против австрийца. Liam Delap somewhat paid off his £50m fee by scoring just 45 seconds after the second half began. Villa needed inspiration and Emery turned to his new signings Johan Manzambi and Ibrahim Mbaye.

The changes injected much-needed energy into the hosts and they were rewarded when Alysson scored his first goal for the club to level. At that point, momentum appeared to be swinging Villa's way. However, with 10 minutes remaining, Ian Maatsen was forced off after hobbling badly.

Villa had already used all their substitutes, leaving them with 10 men for the closing stages. Forest sensed an opportunity and they took it. With just two minutes remaining, Igor Jesus found the decisive finish to send the travelling Forest supporters wild.

Emery is having to rebuild following a turbulent summer, where a host of key players were sold, but progress is slow. The result leaves Villa with just one point from their first four games and in the bottom three.
