Aston Villa welcome Paris Saint-Germain to Villa Park for the second leg of their Champions League quarter-final clash on Tuesday night – but they’ve got a mountain to climb. After a 3-1 defeat in Paris, Unai Emery’s side will need something special in front of their home fans.
PSG, meanwhile, are flying – and they’ve developed a ruthless edge on the road.

📝 Match Preview
Unai Emery’s European pedigree is unquestioned, but Villa are in unfamiliar territory at this stage of the Champions League. They were caught cold late on in Paris, and now face the huge task of overturning a two-goal deficit.
PSG are no longer the flaky, flashy side of old. Under Luis Enrique, they’re compact, clinical and incredibly effective. They’ve shown their steel with wins at Liverpool and Barcelona already – and they’ll look to manage this tie with minimal fuss.
Expect a bold start from Villa, but PSG’s counter-attacking threat should prove too much.
