Never let it be said that Unai Emery doesn't know his way around European competitions; the Villa gaffer has lifted the Europa League trophy four times (three with Sevilla from 2014-16; also Villarreal in 2021), and has Villa poised to qualify for a bye in the next round and a straight ticket to the Round of 16 in this event. Villa's recent efforts include Ollie Watkins once again scoring goals (one each in last two vs. Everton and Arsenal), and there have been at least three goals scored in eight of the last nine Villa matches. Monaco is not having the easiest time at the moment as it is winless in four, but there is still a sharp edge in attack led by Breel Embolo and Eliesse Ben Seghir. Play Monaco-Aston Villa "Over"
