Aston Villa made a sensational finish last season, securing fourth place in the Premier League, which earned them a spot in Europe’s most prestigious club tournament for the first time since the 1982/83 season.
Contrary to expectations, Aston Villa has so far managed to avoid the “second season syndrome.” After six rounds, Unai Emery’s team sits in fifth place with 13 points, recording 4 wins, 1 draw, and 1 loss. The only defeat came against Arsenal in the second round with a 0-2 scoreline. This was followed by three consecutive wins, and in the most recent round, Aston Villa surprisingly drew 2-2 against Ipswich.
Aston Villa’s return to the Champions League has been very successful. Unai Emery’s side comfortably beat Swiss champions Young Boys 3-0 away from home.
Bayern Munich is traditionally one of the favorites in every Champions League campaign, and this season is no exception, despite the fact that the team is now managed by the inexperienced Vincent Kompany. However, the way Bayern has started under the Belgian coach gives its fans great hope.
In the first five Bundesliga matches, Bayern earned 13 points, only dropping points in the most recent match against reigning German champions Bayer Leverkusen (1-1). Bayern controlled the game and was much closer to winning. Before the Bayer match, they crushed Holstein Kiel 6-1 and Werder Bremen 5-0.
In the first round of the Champions League, Bayern became the first team in the tournament’s history to score 9 goals in a single match – a 9-2 victory over Dinamo Zagreb, with Harry Kane scoring four goals.
