Team News
Aston Villa
PSG
- Donyell Malen and Andres Garcia remain ineligible for the home side, while Leon Bailey is the only injury concern for Unai Emery.
- After coming off the bench to score and win a penalty, Ollie Watkins should be restored to the starting XI here.
- Marco Asensio could be forced to settle for a place on the bench against his parent club once again.
- PSG captain Marquinhos can return from his suspension here, and will be expected to join Willian Pacho in the backline.
- Luis Enrique's side enjoyed a weekend off in Ligue 1 and have no injury concerns heading into this second leg at Villa Park.
- Expect the French champions to field an almost entirely unchanged starting XI here.
Zoltan you were totally wrong.
If Aston Villa hadn't conceded that 3rd goal at Parc des Princes, we would have been in for even more of a cracker... Oh well, kudos to Emery and his team, they had a good run!
Heroic effort by Villa, but PSG are just so good at this moment
Is it me or the Europa League music was played? Rofl
gol gol and 3+
2:1 A.Villa
PSG had free weekend between games. I doubt Villa can do anything here.
@Ewerfekt Yes, they can, given that the leading party in the tie gives them the chance by playing an overly defensive game!
Over 2.5 goals.
@Marbella Under 2.5 goals, the typical Spanish showdown, given that both coaches are Spanish (one of the top 6 defensive nations in the world: 1. Italian 2. Brazilian 3. Uruguay 4. Argentina 5. Portugal 6. Spain) These are all under 2.5 nations ESPECIALLY IN BIG COMPETITIONS AGAINST STRONG OPPOSITION
@Zoltan Brazil are not even top 20 defensively
@Marbella Give me a break! Spanish coaches are not renowned for playing attacking football in the possession of a 2 goal cushion. Luis Enrique will instruct his team to defend tenaciously, which they can do pretty well, so it will be a low scoring game!
@Zoltan LMAO
@Zoltan Not a great prediction there.
Unai Emery masterclass at villa park
Draw
1:1
2-0
