Aston Villa’s victory over Club Brugge has secured them a UEFA Champions League quarterfinal against PSG, who recently defeated Liverpool at Anfield.
On paper, PSG appear as the favorites, but they cannot underestimate Villa or their coach, Unai Emery, who is familiar with their strengths and weaknesses. Emery’s experience will play a pivotal role in the matchup.
“You can watch all the UEFA Champions League action all season long on Paramount+.”
Unai Emery vs. Luis Enrique
La Remontada left a mark on PSG’s past under Emery’s management. As PSG’s new coach, Enrique will look to ensure that history does not repeat itself against his old rival.
Marco Asensio
The Spaniard is currently on loan at Villa and has been a key player since joining the team.
Lucas Digne
Digne, also a former PSG player, will be crucial in Villa’s setup, providing defensive support and attacking options with well-placed crosses.
Although PSG is favored to win, Villa’s potential for unexpected surprises under Emery makes this matchup intriguing.
