"The Opta supercomputer has now assigned Emery's men a 75.8% chance of finishing in the Champions League places, though ending the campaign in fifth could also be enough to qualify for UEFA's flagship competition."
Ollie Watkins scored his first Premier League goal for Aston Villa since January, contributing to a 2-0 victory over West Ham. John McGinn opened the scoring early in the match. Watkins has been involved in six goals against West Ham at home. His performance was praised by Unai Emery, who emphasized Watkins' fighting spirit and importance in the attacking play.
