Unai Emery’s Villa will be looking to pull off a comeback when they welcome Luis Enrique’s PSG to Villa Park on Tuesday for the return leg of their Champions League quarter-final tie. Here are predictions, team news, betting tips, and possible line-ups for the game.
When Aston Villa took the lead at Parc des Princes via a swooping counterattacking move finished off by Morgan Rogers, it felt like Emery was on his way to pull off another European masterclass against his old club.
However, the euphoria lasted for only four minutes, as Desire Doue curled home a fine finish from the edge of the box to level the game.
From that time, PSG took over the game, as Khvicha Kvaratskhelia showed his trickery to score the second four minutes into the second half, before Nuno Mendes ensured they had a two-goal cushion with a stoppage time goal.
Having already won Ligue 1, the French side was granted rest last weekend by the league body, leaving them with extra days to prepare for the return leg.
Villa, however, were in action over the weekend, thumping already-relegated Southampton 3-0 to bolster their chances of European qualification for next season.

Aston Villa vs PSG Head to Head
The seven times PSG have won the first leg of a UCL knockout tie by 2 or more goals, they have only been eliminated three times.
PSG have won only four of their 17 away games against English sides in European competitions (4D, 9L). But they won the most recent one against Liverpool, ending a run of four straight defeats in such games.
Villa have lost three of their four games against French sides under Emery, though their only victory in those games came at Villa Park.

Villa have just one injury concern, and that is Leon Bailey, who might make a return but is likely not fit enough to start.

Aston Villa vs PSG Predictions & Betting Tips
We expect this to be a high-intensity affair, as Villa will be pushed by the home crowd. While they might score more than once, we do not think they can stop PSG from also finding the net, which will likely see the visitors go through.
