Aston Villa have started the 2025/26 Premier League season with notable attacking difficulties, echoing challenges from the previous campaign.
Statistical data from their opening two games illustrates a lack of goal-scoring threat, placing the team among the lowest scorers in the league's upper half last season.
Several key departures have compounded the issue, leaving Villa with limited offensive options and creating an uncertain outlook going forward.
Under Unai Emery’s management—the most successful period in recent years—the team had begun showing attacking promise, but current form suggests a regression, particularly in creating scoring opportunities and converting chances.
The club's transfer activity over the summer, constrained by spending restrictions, yielded only one notable attacking addition in Evann Guessand, who has yet to make a significant impact.
Upcoming fixtures, especially the upcoming home clash with Crystal Palace—a team with a sturdy defensive setup—pose difficult tests that could further expose Villa’s fragility in the final third.
The persistent goal drought has also been an emotional strain on fans and players alike, with calls mounting for additional signings to revive the team's offensive threat and halt the negative trend early in the season.
