Liverpool v Aston Villa
Liverpool won its first game at Anfield as Premier League champion as a 2-0 victory piled the misery on relegation-threatened Aston Villa.
Having been angered by the Reds' 4-0 loss to Manchester City on Friday (AEST), Jurgen Klopp saw his side triumph even if the performance still left much to be desired.
Sadio Mane's 71st-minute goal broke the visitor's stubborn resolve before Curtis Jones added late gloss as Dean Smith's men, winless in nine in the league, remained in the bottom three.
