TEAM NEWS

TEAM STATS

Unai Emery softens the line up for the second Group Game but keeps his aces on the bench presumably for a half time change up once again.

It would be nice to see a full strength first XI but he's the European expert so who are we to judge?

MATCH QUOTES

"It's huge because of how we started the group. Tonight was a must win. We didn't play well in the first half. "We left it far too late but I suppose all that matters is the three points. I'm delighted we finally got them at the end. But we need to improve. "It says a lot. There's pressure on us to win. We need to be playing better - we know that - but we eventually got there. We showed patience, there was a delicious ball from Cashy and thankfully I managed to get my head on it. "It meant a lot. My career has been an incredible journey. To score Villa's first goal in European group stage football after what me and the club have been through is a great feeling." John McGinn. "To win like that is amazing. The emotion just explodes in every supporter, every player and it's the same for the coach. Football needs that emotion. "I decided after the first half to make changes, to add some experience and raise the level. We needed to push harder. We created chances and though we weren't efficient, eventually we got the goal." Unai Emery.
