Aston Villa’s Champions League Return: PSG and Dortmund at Villa Park

Aston Villa are back in the Champions League after lifting the Europa League — and the draw gave Villa Park two of Europe’s heaviest hitters.

Unai Emery’s side will host Paris Saint-Germain and Borussia Dortmund, travel to Barcelona and Galatasaray, and also face Club Brugge, Fenerbahçe, Viking and Slavia Prague across the eight-match league phase.

Fresh from a UEFA Super Cup meeting with PSG, Villa know exactly how high the bar is — and home nights under the lights could define whether they finish in the automatic knockout places.
