Aston Villa are back in European quarter final action as they face Bologna in the UEFA Europa League.
Unai Emery’s side travel to Italy for the first leg at the Stadio Renato Dall’Ara on Thursday night, aiming to take a positive result back to the West Midlands ahead of the return fixture.
Villa arrive in decent form after overcoming Lille in the last 16 and will feel this is a good opportunity to take control of the tie.
Bologna had been in strong form towards the end of 2025, going eight games unbeaten, but their momentum has stalled in recent weeks.
The Italian side have managed just two wins from their last 12 matches in all competitions and are without a victory in their last three home games, suffering two defeats and a draw.
That dip in form means the Dall’Ara has not provided its usual level of comfort, giving Villa reason to believe they can take an advantage into the second leg on 16 April.
Emery, who is targeting a record extending fifth Europa League title, will be keen for his side to take another step forward in the competition.
