Nottingham Forest vs Aston Villa: Preview

The first major European semi-final between two English teams since 2008/09 promises to be golden, as Nottingham Forest take on Aston Villa.

Vitor Pereira's side could still lose their Premier League status this season, but have performed valiantly to get this far and are looking to beat top-five hopefuls Villa over two legs to reach the final.

It's a first European semi-final for Forest in 42 years, and confidence is high within the group after they smashed Sunderland 5-0 in the Premier League on Friday night in the north east.

Forest have also attempted more shots (232) and shots on target (88) than any other side still left in the Europa League this season and will be well up for this one on home soil.

Villa's place in the top five of the Premier League looks relatively sure but they can still guarantee a place in Europe's elite club footballing competition by winning the Europa League this term.

Bidding to follow in Spurs's footsteps (not with relegation) after they lifted the European trophy last year, Unai Emery's side have waltzed into the last four with some great displays.

Boss Emery has progressed from all five of his last UEL semi-finals and is a seasoned veteran in this competition, having already won it four times.

He also reached the final as Arsenal boss back in 2018/19, losing to Chelsea in the Baku final.

FourFourTwo's prediction

Nottingham Forest 2-1 Aston Villa

We fancy Pereira's side to narrow nick this one on home soil, with Morgan Gibbs White grabbing one goal.
