It promises to be another Champions League classic at Villa Park, as Unai Emery’s side take on Juventus. Despite a loss to Club Brugge last time out, Villa have looked the part in the Champions League this term and they appear to relish the challenge of taking on some of the biggest sides in Europe. Juventus meanwhile are undergoing a transitional phase of sorts but continue to be a very dangerous side, an opinion shared by many punters and UCL betting apps.

Aston Villa vs Juventus Analysis
This should be a Champions League whopper at Villa Park, with so much on the line.
Aston Villa
There is a real sense of freedom about Aston Villa currently, who have huffed and puffed a touch in the Premier League this season but who remain a real force in the Champions League. Three wins from 4 games played has been a real statement from Villa and they look to be the side that nobody fancies playing at this point. Unai Emery has a great record in European competition, and he’ll have Villa firing again here.
Team news: Ross Barkley and Matty Cash look set to miss out here for the Villa.
Aston Villa Predicted Lineup:
Martinez, Konsa, Torres, Carlos, Digne, Onana, Tielemans, Ramsey, Rogers, Bailey & Watkins.
Juventus
Thiago Motta has got his Juventus side going well again this term and they look very much at home in the revamped Champions League. Finishing inside the top 8 would be a great return for the side from Turin, who are also moving quite nicely in Serie A too. This does feel like a real test of their mettle though and their young squad will need to step up at Villa Park but they are fancied to do so by quite a few punters and Champions League betting sites.
Team news: Bremer, Juan Cabal and Arkadiusz Milik will all be missing for this trip to Birmingham.
Juventus Predicted Lineup:
Perin, Savona, Gatti, Kalulu, Cambiaso, Thuram, Locatelli, Weah, Koopmeiners, Yildiz & Vlahovic.
Aston Villa vs Juventus Prediction
These are two sides that relish the big occasions and the prospect of them facing off in the Champions League is a hugely exciting one. Villa Park should be rocking here, and Juventus should feel the wrath of the Holte End from the very beginning. With that in mind, both sides could end up playing out a very entertaining draw, a result that may suit all parties.
Prediction: The match to finish as a draw – 5/2 (+250) – Rhino Bet.

Draw & BTTS – 4/1 (+400) – Fitzdares
