Aston Villa grabbed their fifth win in six Premier League games with a comfortable victory over Luton Town at Villa Park. John McGinn opened the scoring in the first half with his fourth goal of the season, controlling the ball from a corner before firing into the back of the net. Moussa Diaby added a second soon after the break as he drove home from inside the box, and the forward was instrumental in the third. He used his pace to chase a ball over the top before his cross was turned in by Luton captain Tom Lockyer for an own goal.
Luton never looked like getting anything from the game and failed to manage a shot on goal until the hour mark, when Ross Barkley sent a rising effort from distance well over the bar.
But they did get a consolation late on in unusual circumstances as a header by Villa defender Ezri Konsa bounced back off the bar and in off goalkeeper Emi Martinez.
The win means Villa have an impressive 22 points from 10 Premier League games as they continue their fine form under manager Unai Emery.
Defeat for Luton, meanwhile, leaves them in the relegation zone and one point from safety.
