Aston Villa (3) v Bologna 1909 (1) Pre Match
« on: April 13, 2026, 05:28:41 PM »
What: Europa League Quarter Final second leg.
When: Thursday 16 April Kick Off 20:00 BST 21:00 CET
Where: Villa Park B6.

Should be straight forward. Play some of our back up players, secure a sit back save energy draw. Job done.

No need to chase the game, let them over commit to their press and then rip them apart with our ability to move the ball quickly between the lines. Looks like a half decent crowd will be in attendance so looking forward to this one. Maybe a couple of changes to give those in need a rest.

I predicted 3-1 for the first leg in the pre match thread.

So, I’m going 2-1 home win. I think they may score first.

You can see why these cnuts aren't keen on elections. They're shit at them.

Edit: I've either posted on the wrong thread or the media has got it in for me.

We’re not through yet and they get the first goal, things could get nervy. Saying that we score early we could batter them.
I wouldn’t rest anybody at this point, but if we’re in no danger I’d get Dougie on for Tielemans as early in the second half as possible.

Martinez
Cash
Konsa
Torres
Maatsen
Onana
Tielemans
McGinn
Watkins
Rogers
Beundia

2-1 (Watkins, Rogers)

Quick bit of research and I find Mussolini was born only 50 miles from Bologna. Bang to rights. Smash them.

Bologna is traditionally a left-wing city.

Wasn't there a right wing terrorist atrocity there in the late 70's?

2.0. Goal either side of HT puts it to bed. Onwards.
