Pep Guardiola side made it six wins in a row in all competitions as they handed Steven Gerrard his first defeat since he took over as Villa boss.
The Citizens took the lead all thanks to Ruben Dias' left-footed strike from outside the area found the bottom left-hand corner of Emiliano Martinez's net.
Then Bernardo Silva added a brilliant second before the break, cushioning Gabriel Jesus' cross beyond Martinez on the volley first time.
Aston Villa pulled a goal back after Ollie Watkins with a clever finish from a corner at the start of the second half, with Carney Chukwuemeka seeing perhaps the best chance to equalise.
