Benteke scored from the spot in the 64th minute of Aston Villa's 4-3 win over West Bromwich Albion on Wednesday.

Villa and West Brom put on an unexpected scoring barrage Wednesday and it almost looked like Benteke was going to miss out on the party. However, after six goals were scored, Benteke netted the winner for Villa, finding the back of the net for the third match in a row. He'll look to extend his streak Saturday at Everton.

Benteke scored in the 36th minute of Aston Villa's 2-2 draw with Liverpool on Saturday.

Benteke has now found the back of the net in back-to-back matches after going nearly three months without a goal. The Belgian striker is starting to get back into excellent form and could start a solid scoring run.

Benteke found the back of the net in the 76th minute of Aston Villa's 1-2 loss to Arsenal on Monday.

Benteke's header was his first league goal since September 14 against Newcastle. The Belgian striker has battled injuries for the past few months, but a break over the holiday period is hopefully what ailed him, as he looks to increase his scoring load in an attempt to match last season's 19 goals in league play.

Benteke took two shots, with one on goal, Wednesday against Sunderland.

Benteke made his return from a knee injury that has plagued him for most of the season, and kept him out of the holiday period games. Fantasy owners are desperate to see him break his scoreless streak, which has now reached 11 games.

Benteke is in the starting XI for Aston Villa's match against Sunderland on Wednesday.

Benteke missed the entire holiday period due to a knee injury that's been bothering him since November, so hopefully the rest was enough to get him back on track. The Belgian striker hasn't scored a league goal since September 14.

Benteke (knee) will face a late fitness test ahead of Wednesday's match at Sunderland, the Express and Star reports.

Benteke was expected to be back in training Monday, which certainly bodes well for his prospects of playing Wednesday. The striker's knee injury has really hampered him over the last month, which has resulted in no goals since September 14.

Benteke (knee) has been ruled out of Aston Villa's upcoming fixtures through New Year's Day, according to Sky Sports.

Benteke has been battling a knee injury for much of the last two months, and Villa are clearly concerned enough that they have decided to rest him. His scoring drought this season can easily be attributed to the injury, with the hope that a little rest over the holiday period will get him back in the scoring stride.
