    Aston Villa should control this game at Villa Park — they lead the group, score freely and beat Fenerbahçe 6-0 at home. Viking score regularly but are weaker in Europe; expect Villa to win with multiple goals.

    Aston Villa arrive in strong form, with 9 goals scored in two league-stage games and a 6-0 win last time out at home. Viking are 27th, have conceded 6, and have six players out. Expect Villa to control the game, though Viking's recent scoring gives them a fair chance of a goal.

    Aston Villa have enjoyed a flying start in the Champions League, scoring nine goals across two wins. Viking showed attacking threat by drawing 3-3 with Bayern Munich, but their defensive vulnerabilities and extensive injury list make Villa Park an uphill task. Expect the hosts to control possession and generate ample scoring opportunities.
