Aston Villa looked set to challenge Cardiff for second place as they beat Wolves 4-1 at Villa Park, leading many fans to tip the Villains to make a swift Premier League return. Although two successive defeats to the lesser fancied QPR and Bolton have taken Villa’s fate out of their own hands, they now sit seven points off of Cardiff and the Welsh side also have a game in hand over Villa.

Steve Bruce’s side look more and more likely to be chancing the playoffs for promotion this season. The saving grace for Kodjia and co will, be the strength of the side of their current side. The Villa Park faithful have got one of the strongest teams in the division and the return of Kodjia to Bruce’s disposal will do their hopes of returning to England’s top flight a world of good. Kodjia has become one of the league’s most feared forwards and when coupled with the in-form Lewis Grabban, Villa Park will be expecting goals in their upcoming home games against Reading, Cardiff and Leeds.
