Referee Marco Guida (Italy)
Goal Scorer:
Aston Villa
Aston Villa will be without the services of Emiliano Martinez, Boubacar Kamara, Emiliano Buendia, Tyrone Mings, Jacob Ramsey, Alex Moreno, and Nicolo Zaniolo. Emery has quite a few injuries to deal with. Meanwhile, Youri Tielemans, who was subbed in the first half against Chelsea, is a major doubt for this one.
The home side will line up in a 4-4-2 formation, where Robin Olsen will be in goal. Ezri Konsa and Pau Torres will feature in the heart of the defence, while Matty Cash and Lucas Digne will take charge as the full-backs.
Leon Bailey and Morgan Rogers will feature out wide on the flanks. They will provide support to the full-backs as well as look to add width to their attacks. Douglas Luiz and John McGinn will feature in a more central role. They will look to control the tempo of the game. In attack, we could see Jhon Duran start alongside the incredible Ollie Watkins.
Probable Lineup (4-4-2): Olsen; Cash, Konsa, Torres, Digne; Bailey, Luiz, McGinn, Rogers; Duran, Watkins
Olympiacos
The visitors will be without the services of Andreas Ndoj and Georgios Masouras, who are both suspended for this fixture. They do not have any fresh injury concerns to worry about and have the majority of their squad ready for this big clash.
Olympiacos will line up in a 4-3-3 formation, where Konstantinos Tzolakis will take charge in goal as he has been the preferred choice for European fixtures this term. Rodinei and Francisco Ortega will start as the full-backs, while Panagiotis Retsos and David Carmo will pair up in the heart of the defence.
In the centre of the park, Andre Horta will start alongside Santiago Hezze and Chiquinho. The trio will look to ensure Villa do not end up dictating the pace of the game. Kostas Fortounis and Daniel Podence will provide the width to their attacks, while Ayoub El Kaabi will lead the line and will be eager to add to his tally.
Probable Lineup (4-3-3): Tzolakis; Rodinei, Restos, Carmo, Ortega; Horta, Chiquinho, Hezze; Fortounis, El Kaabi, Podence
Prediction: Aston Villa 2-1 Olympiacos
