Aston Villa headed to France to face Lille with a narrow one-goal advantage after their first-leg victory at Villa Park. The match had fans on the edge of their seats as both teams displayed top-notch performances.

The first leg saw goals from Ollie Watkins and John McGinn propelling Aston Villa to a lead, but Lille’s Bafodé Diakité managed to secure a crucial goal late in the game, setting the stage for an intense second leg.

The Stade Pierre-Mauroy buzzed with anticipation as fans eagerly awaited the clash between Aston Villa and Lille. The atmosphere was electric as both teams fought tooth and nail for a spot in the Europa Conference League semi-finals.
