Two first half goals proved crucial as Sheffield Wednesday defeated Aston Villa 2-1 at Villa Park this afternoon.
Carlos Carvalhal's side successfully built on their victory over Millwall at Hillsborough on Tuesday and started brightly with Adam Reach opening the scoring inside just 18 seconds.
Jordan Rhodes ended a run of 24 league matches without a goal in the win over Millwall and he added a second on 23 minutes to score in consecutive league games for the first time since April 2016.
Christopher Samba pulled a goal back for the hosts in stoppage time but it proved to be nothing more than a consolation for Steve Bruce's men.
