From the source

Aston Villa’s victory against Manchester City featured top performances at both ends of the pitch, as Unai Emery’s side claimed back-to-back Premier League victories and their first at Villa Park.

Perhaps the simplest stat to explain Villa’s win on Saturday is the fact they scored two goals from two shots on target, both of course coming from Nicolas Jackson.

Villa’s striker is on a roll, having scored four times in the last four Premier League games, and his ability to turn half-chances into goals has been key early in the season, as well as against Man City.
