Unai Emery was adamant that playing between two Champions League games would never affect his team’s intensity, although there is clearly a good time to catch Aston Villa this season. They have now failed to win in the last six matches after playing in Europe.

By Andrew Cawthorne BIRMINGHAM, England (Reuters) -Aston Villa missed a chance to close in on the Premier League's top four on Sunday in a 1-1 draw at home to West Ham United whose Brazilian left back Emerson rescued a point after Jacob Ramsey had got the hosts off to a dream start.

After his assist for Jacob Ramsey, Ollie Watkins became the second Aston Villa player to be directly involved in 100+ Premier League goals (61 goals, 39 assists) after with Gabriel Agbonlahor. Watkins reached the century in just 169 appearances - 108 fewer than Agbonlahor (277).

Aston Villa endured another Champions League hangover after they drew 1-1 with West Ham. Jacob Ramsey's early opener at Villa Park was cancelled out by Emerson Palmieri's second-half header to leave Villa without a Premier League win after each of their last six European games.

Emerson's fine header secured West Ham a deserved 1-1 draw with Aston Villa in their Premier League clash at Villa Park.

Leapfrogged by the Eagles in the Premier League standings, West Ham failed to register on a single shot on the goal of Dean Henderson throughout the course of the top-flight battle, suggesting that Potter's decision to switch to a back-five formation weakened the hosts' attack.
