Hibernian Team News

Hibernian finished in 5th place last season and qualified for the qualification in the Conference League. They already beat Inter Club from Andora and Luzern from Switzerland in the previous two rounds, but in the last round they will have a much tougher opponent.

Hibernian was in the qualification of Conference League two seasons ago and they got eliminated in 3rd round against Rijeka. Before that, they played in Europe in the 2018/19 season when they got eliminated in 3rd round by Molde.

In the last 15 years, Hibernian has never gone through 3rd qualification round. This is their first time.

The new season started poorly. After two games they have two defeats and zero points. They are 11th on the table. They are even struggling against Raith in the 2nd round of the League Cup but manage to beat them 2:1.

Lee Johnson is under pressure and he must find a way to turn around things.

After the first two games, they conceded five goals – the most of any team in the league.

Aston Villa Team News

Aston Villa responded to a humiliating defeat against Newcastle in the opening round of the Premier League by beating Everton at home on Sunday 4-0. They were fantastic in that game and had chances to score more than four goals.

Unai Emery used that game to give a chance to some players from the bench and rest some key players because, in the 51st minute, Aston Villa had a three-goal lead.

Another problem for Emery is the injury of Philippe Coutinho. Because now he has two creative players who are injured. The Brazilian will miss a couple of weeks, how things stand.

Against Everton players like Diego Carlos, Youri Tielemans, Barnard Traore, Robin Olsen and Cameron Archer were on the bench and they will probably start against Hibernian in combination with some players from the starting eleven.

This is the first season in Europe for Aston Villa since 2010/11 when they were eliminated in qualification for the Europe League by Rapid Wien.
