Aston Villa vs Fulham

Aston Villa achieved a 3-1 comeback victory over Fulham at Craven Cottage, despite trailing early to Raul Jimenez's fifth-minute goal. Villa equalized shortly after through Morgan Rogers' deflected shot, and Ollie Watkins gave them the lead with a header before Fulham's Joachim Andersen was sent off. Fulham missed a crucial penalty when Andreas Pereira's attempt was saved by Emi Martinez, and soon after, substitute Issa Diop scored an own goal, further sealing Fulham's fate. Both teams ended the match with ten players, but Villa's impressive performance moved them into the Premier League's top four, while Fulham suffered their second consecutive defeat. The loss highlighted a series of defensive errors for Fulham and a missed opportunity to capitalize on their early advantage.
