Aston Villa kick off their Europa League knock-out phase campaign with a trip to Lille in the round of 16. Villa beat Lille over two legs in the Conference League a couple of seasons ago and return to northern France for a Europa League tie against a team in form in Ligue 1. Manager Unai [...]

There have been much tougher times to support Aston Villa. If you’re as old as me, you’ve known Villa as a second-tier club. If you’re a bit older, there’s a good chance you remember them in the third. Villa have lost their way a bit this season but it’s March and they’re in a Champions [...]

Aston Villa continue their 2025/26 Europa League campaign with their first knock-out fixture against Lille on Thursday. Villa are in shaky form in the Premier League. They’re still in a Champions League position but their grip upon it is loosening, making this Europa League round of 16 fixture phenomenally important. Unai Emery faces a number [...]

Aston Villa took the worst performance of the Unai Emery era and doubled down in a 4-1 loss to Chelsea. Villa players have been a waste of space for Fantasy Premier League competitors this season. There have been many good times and some impressive performances studded with big moments, but in terms of consistent and [...]

Manager Unai Emery has named his team for Aston Villa’s Premier League match against Chelsea this evening. Villa are winless in their last two league games and have dropped to fourth place in the Premier League, an outcome from their poor form that would have been worse without Wolverhampton Wanderers beating Liverpool at Molineux yesterday.

Aston Villa face Chelsea this evening in a Premier League match that could prove pivotal in their 2025-26 season. Villa seem to have been the architects of their own difficulties. They haven’t won in two matches and lost their most recent outing against relegation-bound Wolverhampton Wanderers, becoming only the second team to lose to them [...]

Aston Villa were awful in their Premier League game against Wolverhampton Wanderers on Friday. Sorry if that offends. Few Villa players left Molineux with any credit and those of us unfortunate enough to own them – in a Fantasy Premier League sense, not how Wolves did – were left fundamentally dischuffed about the consequences. Let’s [...]

Aston Villa face a major test in the fight for Champions League places when they welcome Chelsea to Villa Park on Wednesday night. Villa won 2-1 at Stamford Bridge in the reverse fixture in the Premier League. Ollie Watkins scored twice as Villa came from a goal down to bank all three points and continue [...]

Aston Villa dropped the ball in their Premier League loss against Wolverhampton Wanderers, a result that took Wolves to the grand total of 13 points. Losing to Wolves in the league had only been achieved this season by West Ham United. Villa, who started and ended the game at Molineux in third place in the [...]

Aston Villa were beaten 2-0 by Wolverhampton Wanderers on Friday night in what many supporters saw as an avoidable embarrassment. Villa don’t win at Molineux. In that sense, the result wasn’t a surprise even against a Wolves team well adrift at the bottom of the Premier League table. Wolves are a slightly different proposition under [...]
