Hibernian and Aston Villa will play at least 180 minutes of football to decide who advances from this Europa Conference League Play-offs battle. Get ready for the first 90 minutes!
It's no vacation for neither Hibernian nor Aston Villa as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Hibernian form and stats
This is not the first game this season in the Europa Conference League for Hibernian, as the manager Johnson led his troops to eliminate Luzern and Inter Club d'Escaldes, and reach the Play-offs.This match is a Europa Conference League match, and the hometeam has the total statistics 2 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss in this competition.
Hibernian's previous fixture was a League Cup game also played at their own stadium, finishing 2-1 against Raith Rovers. The home side are looking to build on that result.
In the game before, 2-2 away to Luzern (Europa Conference League).
Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the Premiership game versus Livingston in only three days. This game is also played here at Easter Road Stadium.
Aston Villa form and stats
0-0-1 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Aston Villa in their Premier League matches away.
Aston Villa had fun at their own home (Easter Road Stadium) last time out, beating Everton 4-0. Durán, McGinn, Bailey and Luiz scored. As you can tell from the results above, Aston Villa was very dominant against Everton, winning the match with a scoreline that even the finest fortune teller couldn't predict. 4-0 (!) with Durán, McGinn, Bailey and Luiz providing the goals. Bailey got a match rating of 8.84 in that game, top player of the team. Bailey scored one goal, served one assist, hit one key pass, dribled past the opponent 2 of 2 times and had 25 successful passes (of 30 total).
A 1-5 defeat away at Newcastle United before that.There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Villa manager Etxegoien as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Burnley.
It's early days yet, but Aston Villa has scored 1 and conceded 5 goals from their travels in the league so far (1 game).
