Aston Villa Bologna Prediction – Champions League

Europe – Champions League

Aston Villa is still committed on all fronts and has performed quite well since the start of the season. Qualified for the 1/8 finals of the EFL Cup after its success at Wycombe (1-2), Unai Emery’s team has just taken 4 points in the last two days of the Premier League against Manchester United (0-0 ) and at Fulham (1-3) this weekend. The two European successes on the pitch of Young Boys of Bern (0-3) and in front of Bayern Munich (1-0) show the state of form of the Villans.

Bologna is in the second half of the ranking and cannot win this season! Since its first and only victory at Monza (1-2) on September 22, Bologna has been chasing a success and lost at Liverpool (0-3) then had 3 draws in a row in the Italian championship against Atalanta Bergamo ( 1-1), against promoted Parma (0-0) and on the field of Genoa (2-2) this Saturday.

Aston Villa will be without Swedish Olsen (lack of condition) and are uncertain about Kamara (lack of condition), Mings (lack of condition) and Ramsey (groin). The Italian visitors will arrive in England without Cambiaghi (knee), without El Azzouzi (knee), without Erlic, without Ferguson (knee) and without Ndoye. There are three uncertainties regarding Aebischer, Iling Junior and Pobega.

Striker Ollie Watkins, author of 5 goals and 3 assists in 10 official matches with Villa, will be a danger for the Italian defense. The latter was a passer with the Three Lions in Finland (1-3) in the Nations League and scorer in the victory at Fulham (1-3) this weekend.

Bologna has not scored in 4 of its 10 matches since the start of this 2024-2025 financial year, including 2 in this Champions League against Shakhtar Donetsk (0-0) and Liverpool (2-0). The defense is not calm with 5 goals conceded in its last 4 matches. The Orsolini (2) – Castro (3) duo scored more than half (5 goals) of their team’s goals (9 goals) in the Italian championship.

Aston Villa is coming off a historic feat against Bayern Munich (1-0) in Birmingham on the 2nd day and the English team is ready to ignite Villa Park again with the reception of a pale Bologna team which remains on 1 failure during his last trip to England at Liverpool (2-0) at the beginning of October. Disappointing and looking for its first goal in this Champions League, the Italian team should suffer on English soil against Unai Emery’s team, a member of the Top 4 in the Premier League.

Our prediction Aston Villa – Bologna : victory for Aston Villa!
