Aston Villa v Celtic Pre match

[andyh]

I can’t even begin to work out the best results for us should we win on Wednesday.
Has anyone done a simple summary that shows our path for finishing in the top 8, or is it too mind bending?

They've got the fan park booked in Digbeth. At least me and John know how peaceful fan booked places are.

------- Martinez ---------
Cash Konsa Bogarde Digne
--- Kamara -- Tielemans ----
Ramsey ----------- Rogers
-- Watkins ----- Bailey ---

Can't see John McGinn missing this one to be honest.  What a special night for him and his family.

How many blues fans will try and befriend them and teach them ‘shit on da Villa’

Thanks Dave , fingers crossed they’re imminent.

Yes.  We need to win and ONE of the following needs to happen:

We beat Celtic by TWO goals more than LEVERKUSEN beat Sparta Prague
ATALANTA lose or draw away vs Barcelona
AC MILAN lose or draw away vs Dinamo Zagreb
ATLETICO MADRID lose or draw away vs Salzburg
INTER lose at home to Monaco and we make up the GD (currently they are +2 better than us)

and assuming that one of the other teams on 13 points (Monaco, Feyenoord, Lille) don't go crazy and absolutely smash their opponents by a stupid score and overhaul our goal difference advantage.  Although if that was Monaco, Inter would go below us.

Most likely one of those things will happen; but it will be sod's law that we don't beat Celtic.

Oh, and a very unlikely pair of results where we batter Celtic and/or Arsenal get battered by Girona, and we make up 7 goal difference.

Yes I did the other night after Monaco game. It is win tomorrow and we finish top 8 as for it to not happen about 5 teams also need to win their matches. That’s not going to happen. One or two will slip up so you andyh make sure it’s not us🫵🏾

Wow !!!
That is a seriously good summary TS, thank you.

Oh, and you obviously have far too much time on your hands 😂

After their recent shitting themselves about going to the game, followed by kissing up to Rangers fans in the hope they don't get battered, I doubt Celtic fans will want to mix with that rabble. Celtic generally pride themselves on not being Rangers.

My anxiety levels are building up about a half n half scarves breakout on Wednesday night .

[PeterWithesShin]

Wear it with pride Tim.
