Aston Villa

Villa come into the second leg with confidence after their 1–0 away win in Lille, built on defensive discipline and efficiency in attack.

Ollie Watkins remains the key attacking threat after scoring the winner in the first leg, while goalkeeper Emiliano Martínez made crucial saves to preserve the clean sheet.

Manager Unai Emery, a multiple Europa League winner, is expected to rely on his experience to manage the tie and control tempo at home.

Supporting attackers such as Morgan Rogers and Jadon Sancho could be key on the counterattack if Lille push forward.

Lille

Lille must overturn a one-goal deficit and are expected to take a more attacking approach compared to the first leg.

Veteran striker Olivier Giroud remains a focal point in attack, supported by captain Benjamin André in midfield.

The French side struggled to create clear chances in the first leg and will need greater attacking efficiency to break down Villa’s defense.

Lille’s approach is likely to involve higher pressing and a more aggressive attacking setup, which could leave space for Villa’s counterattacks.

Predicted Lineups

  • Aston Villa (4-2-3-1): Martínez — Cash, Konsa, Mings, Digne — Luiz, Onana — Sancho, Rogers, McGinn — Watkins
  • Lille (4-2-3-1): Chevalier — Tiago Santos, Yoro, Alexsandro, Ismaily — André, Gomes — Zhegrova, Haraldsson, Cabella — Giroud
