The battle between Aston Villa and Celtic is between two direct rivals for a spot among the top eight teams in the UEFA Champions League. Whoever wins here will probably secure a place in the Round of 16.
Aston Villa News
Aston Villa has struggled to perform well recently. They have problems in all the lines, so it’s no wonder they lost two of the previous three events and managed to record a tie.
Their defense has been terrible. The Villans have only one clean sheet in the previous 11 matches, which tells a lot about their current shape. The good thing is that Unai Emery and his boys will have a home-court edge in this event. They play notably better at Villa Park than at home.

Celtic News
The Hoops had enough time to rest and prepare well for this event. The Scottish champs haven’t played since their last week’s triumph over Young Boys, 1-0, and come into this one fresh and fired up.
However, what troubles Celtic and its fans is their modest road performances. One victory in the last five road trips says pretty much everything about this matter. When we add that the Hoops haven’t scored in three of those contests, everything is clear enough regarding their road form.
Aston Villa vs. Celtic Head to Head
Even though these two clubs have a great tradition and a vast history (both won the European title), they haven’t met on the international stage.
