The official line-ups of Aston Villa-Juventus: played this evening at 9pm, the match is valid for the fifth day of the single group stage of the Champions League. Live TV and free only on Amazon Prime Video.
Aston Villa–Juventus it’s the game of fifth day of the Champions League which will be played today at 9pm at Villa Park in Birminghan (live on TV and streaming exclusively on Amazon Prime Video). The match between Thiago Motta’s team – decimated by injuries – and Emery’s has an important value for the standings and the possibility of qualifying for the round of 16 by bypassing the playoffs. Juve with 7 points (2 wins, one draw and one defeat) is eleventh in the standings with just two points ahead of the English team: a direct clash that could say a lot about the Bianconeri’s chances of qualifying.
In the last round the team of Thiago Motta did not go beyond a draw on the Lille pitch and this evening they will face a superior opponent, led from the bench by a coach, Unai Emerywhich is a sort of bête noire in light of the previous ones. The Spanish coach has already beaten Juventus twice in the Champions League: the first with Sevilla (2015), the second with Villarreal (2022, when he inflicted a heavy defeat in Turin and eliminated them in the round of 16). His Aston Villa has 9 points thanks to 3 wins and one defeat (6 goals scored, 1 conceded, +5 goal difference).
As for the lineups, forced choices for Thiago Motta who will have a very short bench – only 14 outfield men – and few changes available. Attack entrusted to Weah – blocked yesterday at the airport for checks – in place of the injured Vlahovic with Koopmeiners as false 9, a role already played in the match against Milan in Serie A.
