Aston Villa's Championship introduction was not a positive one

Aston Villa's first game in the second tier of English football since 1988 has ended in defeat.

Roberto Di Matteo's side went down 1-0 at Sheffield Wednesday.

Like fellow Premier League regulars Newcastle who lost to Fulham on Friday night, Villa's first taste of life in the Championship this season ended in a single goal defeat.

Fernando Forestieri got the winner for a Wednesday which reached the promotion playoff final last season and also used to be a fixture on the Premier League table in the 1990s.

Meanwhile ex-Swansea boss Garry Monk's first Championship match in charge of Leeds ended in a 3-0 defeat to QPR.
