Olympiakos v Aston Villa: Europa Conference League semi-final, second leg – live

Can Aston Villa turn this around? Absolutely. They are the better team on paper and have the quality in their ranks to win 2-0 away to Olympiakos.

Unfortunately, theory and reality are two very different things because it is going to be rocking in Piraeus. The fans will be vociferous in their support in order to get Olympiakos over the line after their fantastic first leg performance. Olympiakos have never made it to a European final and it would be a monumental achievement for Greek football.

In Unai Emery Aston Villa have a manager who knows how to get through these difficult situations in Europe. He will have made it clear that last week’s efforts were unacceptable and they need to right some wrongs. It feels like one of those nights where an early goals is key to silence the home crowd and put some doubt back in their minds.

Here’s to a cracker.

Kick-off: 8pm BST
