Bookmaker: |
The home team beat Lucerne 5-3 on aggregate to secure a place in the playoffs. They won 3-1 at home and drew 2-2 in the second round, maintaining a two-goal advantage. Last Sunday, they returned to winning ways with a 2-1 home win over Raith Rovers in the Scottish League Cup.
The visitors finished seventh in the Premier League last season, returning to Europe after 13 years. After a crushing 5-1 defeat to Newcastle United in their league opener, they bounced back with a 4-0 home win over Everton on Sunday.
John McGinn and Douglas Lewis scored six minutes each in the first half, while Leon Bailey and Joe Duran added goals in the second.
Hibees performed well at home in the European qualifiers, remaining unbeaten in nearly seven games and winning five. They have scored at least three goals in five games in this period and should be able to achieve this quickly. Still, the visitors are a notch above their opponents in qualifying on an unbeaten run.
As Villa played their first European game in 13 years, nervousness could take hold. Unai Emery is a great manager at Aston Villa, and his experience in European competitions will be helpful too.
While Hibernian’s home advantage should come into play, we expect the visitors to win narrowly.
