Aston Villa took advantage of Tottenham’s slip against Wolves to climb back into the Premier League top four with a 2-1 win away at Fulham.

Ollie Watkins scored a clinical opener midway through the first half, during which both teams had a goal ruled out, and doubled his tally with a cool second after he had been found by Youri Tielemans.

Fulham did pull one back just after the hour, when the in-form Rodrigo Muniz nipped in to scored his fourth goal in his last three outings.
