After the loss in the first leg Aston Villa will have to take more risks relatively early on, which will repeatedly open up spaces for the French team's high-speed attack. The dress rehearsal this weekend also went according to plan with a commanding 3-0 win at Southampton. Including the Champions League and FA Cup, where the Villans can still dream of silverware as semi-finalists, they have nine wins from their last ten competitive matches . However, their only 1-3 defeat came in the first leg of the Champions League tie a week ago in Paris. As for the guests the first leg also demonstrated once again their attack is really strong. Interestingly, seven different players have already been involved in four or more goals in the Champions League this season. The internal scoring list is led by Ousmane Dembele, who is arguably currently in the best phase of his career. Along with Kvaratskhelia, Doue, and Barcola, the PSG attack is always capable of scoring goals against any opponent.
