About the match
Second leg, Villa Park, with the tie set up by the result at the City Ground a week earlier. M42 derby with Istanbul on the line — Villa have the European experience, Forest have the underdog momentum. Emery's record in two-legged Europa League knockouts is one of the best in the modern competition; he doesn't lose tactical battles to managers with less continental seasoning. Forest will need set pieces and counters — they won't outpass Villa over 90 minutes. The away goals rule is gone, so extra time and penalties remain on the table if the aggregate is level after 90.
