Score of Aston Villa vs PSG
Villa has had a strong home record in Europe this season, but they face a daunting challenge against a side that has claimed victory in 17 out of their last 18 matches in all competitions. Their lone defeat during that stretch was a 1-0 loss to Liverpool in the initial leg of their Champions League last-16 tie, which they later overturned.
A convincing 3-0 win in the Premier League over Southampton between matches has bolstered Villa’s confidence, with Ollie Watkins, Donyell Malen, and John McGinn showcasing their scoring abilities ahead of this crucial matchup tonight.
