Where does that leave Obita/Stevenson playing? Stevenson in the middle?

[HendoDelivered]

Villa full strength

[BoomtownHibees]

Where does that leave Obita/Stevenson playing? Stevenson in the middle?

I’m guessing just a 442. Possibly a 343 with Lewis in the back 3 but doubt it

Looks like a 442! Boyle and Youan interchangable up front with Vente?

Obita will support

I'm worried about Diaby. This Hibs team is awful at covering the 18 yard line. I'm surprised Jeggo isn't playing as he's one of the few who tracks runs.

In fairness Bailey has yet to score or even have a decent game away from VP so fingers crossed that keeps up today as he should be on Lewis' side.

[LunasBoots]

Obita will support

Yeah, looking at Villas team it's probably there strongest team, looks an even tougher game for us than I was expecting.

[Callum_62]

Johnson out

Miller Fish Hanlon Lewis

Vente Youan

Could slightly neuter Youan playing him central, not that there'll be much space anywhere. Maybe he'll drift to the left and we'll just overload that side.

How many squillions is their right back worth?

[Jack Hackett]

Johnson out

:greengrin

Thank god... don't think he has a full 90 in him, so for the best :agree:

[Hibby Kay-Yay]

Let’s do this

[Pretty Boy]

I though Campbell had played himself out of the team on Sunday. Need a big performance from him tonight.

Villa at full strength so no complacency on their part, at least in terms of how Emery is treating the game.

We just have to try and stay in the game as long as possible and try and get them frustrated. Over the 2 legs we shouldn't have a hope in hell but as long as we go down fighting you can't complain.

[Aldo]

Bloody hell their team [emoji1787][emoji1787]

Right Hibs keep it tight the first 90+6 minutes! 🫣

Special mention to the keyboard warriors who have slated a number of our players on the official site. Hope you are pleased and proud of yourselves.


Cmon Hibs [emoji1184][emoji1184]

Villa’s team is making me feel sick

[The Spaceman]

Only a World Cup Winning / World Cup Golden Glove holding goalkeeper to score past lads, how hard can it be?

Unlike Spurs, Liverpool etc who have come up here recently in Europe, Villa have gone 100% full strength. Ouch!

Just score Hibs.

Looks to me as if they want to finish the tie tonight and let them rest a few players next week.

Emery wants to win the trophy and has always put out his strongest team in Europe and today is no different.

Quality all over the park however hopefully Boyle and Youan can feed Vente

[Pretty Boy]

Raith Rovers took the lead Bayern Munich
Hearts took the lead v Liverpool

Both away from home too and neither were hammered over 2 legs. Huge ask and I don't think anyone really believes we are winning either a leg or the tie but it doesn't have to be 6, 7 or 8. Real hammerings in the pro game in competitive games are rare. You get San Marino getting the odd hammering from the likes of Spain or Germany but the gulf here isn't that big.

Of course it wasn't but the best players still played for the best teams. Bayern had Klinsmann, Papin, Kahn among others. They were the superstars of their day. Hearts v Liverpool was only 10 years ago.

We all know we are getting beat, probably comprehensively but I'm not fearing double figures or anything like that. It just doesn't happen and would be an anomaly if it did

Jeezo. 3 cross balls. Nevermind double figures over the tie, this could be double figures on the night the way this is going.

[The Captain....]

Ffs that defence...pub league standard...their positioning there is absolutely amateur. Giving really cheap, embarrassing goals away. Have they no professional pride...ffs get a grip and sign some decent defenders.

Harbottle must be absolutely spewing he can't get a game in this defence.

We're mid table League 1 standard. Any idea that this Hibs side would be competitive in the English Championship has been destroyed in 45 minutes.

[NC1875]

Can someone explain why Hanlon doesn't even jump when the ball goes into the box?

Hibs would be better explaining why he still plays every week. It’s Aston Villa I know but we lose the same goals to balls in the box no matter who we’re playing.

[Gatecrasher]

This could get embarrassing.

[Stuart93]

Reckon we’re trying to outdo our malmo record

[James70]

WANTED A new defence

[cabbageandribs1875]

villa can play their women's side in the 2nd leg


if that's allowed obviously




:)

Spineless in every way, playing in the managers image, absolutely pathetic from the start. Hope Johnson gets emptied ASAP, the only place we're going with him is the Championship, absolute timid, clueless little insignificant welt!!

[Northernhibee]

Rolls Royce engine up front but the tyres are bald, the framework is rusted and rotten and there’s a terrible leak coming from somewhere.

[Berwickhibby]

Again where is the defence..Embarrassing

[Tricla]

Look at Marshall when Digne crossed it there. He was outside the near post. Why? If he's even remotely central he catches it.

[Dr_Regal]

Complete and utter waste of time

This tie just gives Johnson more breathing room

[neil7908]

What was Marshall doing there?

[lyonhibs]

We let about 20,000 crosses into our box against Luzern and got away with it

Oddly enough, Villa haven't been so beneficent

[Jim44]

Our defence is a joke. Making Villa look better than they actually are.

[HH81]

Harbottle must be absolutely spewing he can't get a game in this defence.

He will surely be coming on soon.

Too many spectators in team standing watching
