Jhon Jader Duran Palacio - Scores in win Jhon Duran scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) and one chance created in Sunday's 4-0 victory over Everton.

Impact Duran returned from injury after missing last week's contest; he came off the bench in the 74th minute. The 19-year-old striker scored his first goal of the season a minute after being inserted into the game, following an error by Ashley Young on the throw-in who sent the ball towards Duran. He slotted the ball past Jordan Pickford with a superb shot from his left foot. It is yet to be determined if he'll see more playing time going forward.

Impact Luiz scored his first goal of the season via a penalty kick, after Jordan Pickford committed a foul in the box. The defensive midfielder also sent in five corners before being substituted off in favor of Philippe Coutinho in the 64th minute after he'd already picked up a yellow card in the first half.

Leon Bailey - Scores in win Bailey scored one goal and assisted once from two shots and one chance created in Sunday's 4-0 win over Everton. He was subbed off due to injury in the 63rd minute.

Impact Bailey was a key contributor for his team as he scored his first goal of the season and also picked up his first assist of the season. His assist came in the 18th minute of the contest as he got away from Ashley Young and sent the ball into the box, where it found John McGinn, who managed to put it into the back of the net. His goal came after a deflection in the box made its way towards him, and his shot went through the legs of Jordan Pickford. Unfortunately, Bailey had to leave the game in the 64th minute after picking up an injury just moments before.

Emiliano Martinez - Picks up clean sheet in win Martinez recorded two saves and allowed zero goals in Sunday's 4-0 victory against Everton.

Impact Martinez faced little pressure as Everton managed only two shots on goal, both of which he saved. His most impressive save came in the 60th minute when he deflected a volley off Neal Maupay, preserving his first clean sheet of the season. After conceding five goals in the opener, it's a nice return to form for the goalkeeper. Next, Martinez will face Burnley, a team that failed to score in their previous game.

Philippe Coutinho - Forced off with injury Coutinho was forced off in the second half of Sunday's match against Everton with a hamstring injury.

Impact Coutinho entered the match in the 64th minute, but played just 20 minutes after suffering a leg injury and being replaced in the 84th. It's an unlucky break for the attacker as Coutinho has struggled for playing time since joining Villa with the injury not doing anything to help matters.

Jhon Jader Duran Palacio - Fit for Everton clash Duran is fit and in the match day squad to face Everton on Sunday.

Impact Duran returns from an undisclosed injury which saw the forward miss last week's match against Newcastle. Duran starts from the bench, but is unlikely to see a ton of playing time as a backup option to multiple Villa forwards, most notbaly Ollie Watkins.

Bertrand Traore - Available as substitute Traore is fit and in the match day squad to face Everton on Sunday.

Impact Traore has recovered from an undisclosed injury which kept him out of last week's opening match against Newcastle. Traore is likely to struggle for playing time this season as a backup option to the likes of Leon Bailey and Moussa Diaby.

Nicolo Zaniolo - Loaned to Aston Villa Zaniolo completed a loan move to Aston Villa from Galatasaray for the remainder of 2023-24, Aston Villa announced.

Impact Zaniolo gets his switch to the Premier League, though it is on loan. The midfielder could see a substantial role with Aston Villa, especially with the long-term knee injury Emil Buendia suffered. Zaniolo was a consistent contributor with Roma before a dispute with management saw him depart for Turkey.

Jacob Ramsey - Remains weeks out Ramsey (thigh) is still weeks away from a return, according to manager Unai Emery. "Jacob Ramsey is still some weeks from coming back to us"

Impact Ramsey missed the opener and remains multiple weeks away from any sort of return. The midfielder earned a major role in 2022-23 and could compete with Leon Bailey for the starting role when fully fit. Ramsey could return for a Sept. 3 trip to Liverpool or possibly after the international break.

Alex Moreno - Nearing return Moreno (hamstring) is nearing a return to training, according to manager Unai Emery. "Alex Moreno is close to being back with us."

Impact Moreno missed the opener after a hamstring injury he picked up in pre-season continued to plague him. The defender is now edging closer to a return to the pitch where he will likely take a major role in the starting XI once more. Moreno could return as soon as an Aug. 27 trip to Burnley.

Jhon Jader Duran Palacio - Begins training Duran (undisclosed) trained ahead of Sunday's clash with Everton, according to manager Unai Emery. "We are recovering some players - Bertrand Traore and Jhon Duran started training...

Impact Duran was ruled for the Premier League opener as well as two-to-three additional weeks but is now back in training ahead of schedule. It's uncertain if he'll be able to return to the first team for Sunday's Everton clash or if an Aug. 27 trip to Burnley is a more realistic timeline.

Bertrand Traore - Returns to training Traore (undisclosed) returned to training before Sunday's clash with Everton, according to manager Unai Emery. "We are recovering some players - Bertrand Traore and Jhon Duran star...

Impact Traore missed the opener with an undisclosed issue that was deemed minor. The midfielder now has the chance to return during the second Premier League match after making a return to training. Traore struggled for a role in 2022-23 and isn't likely to play a major part even back with his parent club.

Ollie Watkins - Assists in road loss Watkins assisted once to go with two shots (one on goal) and two chances created in Saturday's 5-1 defeat versus Newcastle United.

Impact Watkins assisted Moussa Diaby's equalizer in the 11th minute, but they failed to keep the draw and ended up with the tough loss in the season debut. The forward was a main piece for Villa in the last campaign, posting 15 goals and six assists. He will look for more as they try to bounce back in the next appointments.

AUGUST 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Moussa Diaby - Scores at Newcastle Diaby scored one goal to go with three shots (two on goal) and two chances created in Saturday's 5-1 loss against Newcastle United.

Impact Diaby scored the 1-1 equalizer in the 11th minute, but it wasn't enough to avoid the road loss, as Aston Villa conceded four times after that. The midfielder logged 14 goals and nine assists for Leverkusen last season. He's set to an important piece for his side in the 2023-24 campaign.

AUGUST 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Emiliano Martinez - Concedes five goals in loss Martinez registered seven saves and allowed five goals in Saturday's 5-1 loss versus Newcastle United. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 54th minute.

Impact Martinez had a game to forget, conceding five times at Newcastle in the season debut. The goalkeeper did not concede five goals in any games in the last campaign. He will look to bounce back against Everton on Sunday.

AUGUST 14, 2023 • THEATHLETIC.COM

Tyrone Mings - Knee requires surgery Mings sustained a "significant knee injury" in Saturday's opener and will be out months after he undergoes surgery.

Impact This was thought to be the case for Mings and it's unfortunately the second knee surgery required from a regular starter for Villa the first week of the season. While they had decent depth entering the campaign, that's already diminishing, as Pau Torres and Diego Carlos will get chances for more time without Mings on the back line. Mings had started at least 33 matches each of the last four seasons for Villa.
