Updates from the 8pm BST kick-off at Villa ParkLive scoreboard – Wednesday’s latest | Email Taha
Hello, hello, hello and welcome to a very special evening at Villa Park. The German giants are in town for a rematch of the 1982 European Cup final, when Aston Villa triumphed 1-0 in Rotterdam. Withe, Shaw and Spink were just some of the heroes back then; tonight offers Watkins, Martínez and others the chance to become the same.
Bayern Munich, looking rejuvenated under new management, will hope to be party-poopers. They remain unbeaten this season, scored nine (!) against Dinamo Zagreb in their Champions League opener and kept up with Leverkusen over the weekend. This should be good fun. Kick-off’s at 8pm BST.
