Nets in win

Buendia scored one goal to go with five shots (two on goal) and one corner in Tuesday's 3-2 win against Club Brugge.

Analysis: Buendia got on the scoresheet early during Tuesday's win. It was an excellent start to life in the Champions League for him and the club. Buendia hasn't had the best start to the Premier League this campaign, so the hope will be that this goal is something he can build from as he returns to domestic action at the weekend.

Struggles to find attacking form

Buendia generated two shots (zero on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one corner in Saturday's 0-0 draw versus Hull City.

Analysis: The playmaker was tipped to become the main attacking outlet after Villa lost Ollie Watkins and Morgan Rogers, but the Argentine is still short of the form that saw him close last season with three goals and two assists across his final six games. At Hull, he took two shots and blazed over the best chance of the lot after good work down the left. He is at least involved, taking a share of the set pieces and now up to six shots and two chances created across the opening three games, but Villa are still without a goal in the league to open the season.
