THE KEY STATS

- Aston Villa have lost only two of their last 14 European home games (W9 D3).
- Aston Villa have only failed to score in one of their last 31 European matches at home.
- Ollie Watkins has scored in his last three Europa Conference League appearances at home for Aston Villa.
- Olympiakos have won only two of their previous ten UEFA competition two-legged ties against English teams.
- Olympiakos have won only three of their last 13 UEFA competition matches against English teams (D3 L7).

THE PREDICTION
Aston Villa are heavily fancied to become the second straight Premier League club to win the Europa Conference League, but their route to the final is blocked by Greek giants Olympiakos. Their record against English teams is not good and when you consider the plethora of quality, not to mention strength-in-depth within the Villa squad, it’s hard not to see Unai Emery’s side dominating the majority of this first-leg, especially at home. Anything less than an aggregate lead going into the second-leg would be seen as a bad result for Aston Villa and the expectation is that they will emerge victorious on their own patch.
