Match Facts

  • This will be Feyenoord’s first European meeting with Aston Villa, with the Dutch side winning just eight of their 28 European matches against English opponents (D6 L14), though six of those victories have come on home soil.

  • Aston Villa are unbeaten across their five major European games against sides from the Netherlands (W4 D1), their most matches against sides from any country without suffering defeat.

  • Feyenoord are unbeaten across their last six home UEFA Europa League games (W4 D2), scoring three goals on average per match during that time.

  • This will be Aston Villa’s first away game in the UEFA Europa League/UEFA Cup since a 2-0 defeat to CSKA Moscow in February 2009. In European football overall, they’ve alternated between winning and losing their last seven away matches, losing their last vs PSG in April earlier this year.

  • John McGinn and Ollie Watkins have both made 23 appearances in major UEFA competition for Aston Villa, with only Gordon Cowans (28) and Dennis Mortimer (27) making more. Indeed, McGinn has seven goals and Watkins six in those games – with only Peter Withe (9) and Gary Shaw (8) netting more for the Villans in major European competitions.
