Aston Villa will be facing a daunting task as they welcome Paris Saint-Germain to Villa Park for the second leg of their UEFA Champions League quarter-final on Tuesday, April 15. Reportedly, Villa, which is trailing by 3-1 after a high-octane first leg in Paris, will need to showcase a remarkable performance on home turf to reach the semi-finals.

Villa Park set for a showdown

Unai Emery’s men have put up an impressive performance through their European campaign. The Villas have shown resilience and tactical discipline on field. Their 3-0 win against Club Brugge at home in Round 16 is proof that Villa Park can make miracles happen.

As per the reports, however, overturning a two-goal deficit against one of Europe’s most in-form clubs will require near perfection from Aston Villa.

PSG holds 3–1 advantage after first leg

PSG, led by Luis Enrique, has been unstoppable this season. Since January, they have lost just once. Reportedly, goals from Desiré Doué, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, and Nuno Mendes in the first leg put the Parisians in the driving seat.

While Villa did score the opening goal in Paris, they were outwitted by PSG’s attacking firepower.

Reportedly, the second leg promises an equally electrifying atmosphere. Villa are likely to adopt an aggressive strategy with Ollie Watkins leading the line and Marcus Rashford operating from the left flank.

Predicted Aston Villa Line-up (4-2-3-1)

Aston Villa, according to SI report, will be without their key players Leon Bailey and Donyell Malen as they attempt a comeback. Villa, fresh off a dominant win over Southampton, are in strong form. This momentum, combined with the backing of their home turf, could fuel hopes.

The predicted line-up for them is likely to be: Martínez; Cash, Konsa, Torres, Digne; Kamara, Tielemans; Rogers, Asensio, Rashford; Watkins

Predicted PSG Line-up (4-3-3)

On the other hand, PSG who are well-rested, have no major injuries and Marquinhos back from suspension, they are expected to field a strong XI. Reportedly, their front three—Doué, Dembélé, and Kvaratskhelia—will be looking to exploit spaces as Villa push forward.

The expected line-up for the team is: Donnarumma; Hakimi, Marquinhos, Pacho, Mendes; Vitinha, Neves, Ruíz; Doué, Dembélé, Kvaratskhelia
