Jacob Ramsey scored Aston Villa's second as they saw off Bournemouth at Villa Park
Aston Villa claimed their third win in four Premier League games as they cruised past struggling Bournemouth at Villa Park.
Douglas Luiz was picked out by Leon Bailey and swept home from close range, before Ramsey jinked past Jack Stephens to make sure of three points.
Villa added a third late on when Emi Buendia headed in from a yard out after Tyrone Mings flicked on Luiz's corner.
While Unai Emery's side moved into the top half, for a few hours at least, Bournemouth remain in the bottom three after being brought back down to earth following their win over Liverpool last weekend.
