Victory on home soil again will make it three wins from three for Unai Emery&#8217;s side in the new league phase.<\/p>\n<p>The ever reliable super-sub <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportscasting.com\/uk\/news\/jhon-duran-new-contract-aston-villa-2030\/\">Jhon Duran<\/a> hit a stunning lob against the Bavarians in what turned out to be one of Villa&#8217;s most famous ever wins.<\/p>\n<p>After successive victories over Young Boys and the Bundesliga giants, Emery is on the brink of creating history tonight. Another W will mean he becomes the fifth Spaniard to record 25 UEFA Champions League victories.<\/p>\n<p>The quartet who have already achieved said milestone are Pep Guardiola, Rafa Benitez, Luis Enrique and Vincent del Bosque. Esteemed company, indeed.<\/p>\n<p>Domestically, Villa heads into Tuesday&#8217;s clash off of the back of a fine 3-1 away win at Fulham. Youngster Morgan Rogers, Ollie Watkins and an Issa Diop own goal ensuring the points at Craven Cottage.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"sv\" dir=\"ltr\">MATCHDAY AT VILLA PARK \u2014 UTV! \ud83d\udfe3 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/ldeMLwCtp5\">pic.twitter.com\/ldeMLwCtp5<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Aston Villa (@AVFCOfficial) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AVFCOfficial\/status\/1848620805544182248?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">October 22, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<h3>Bologna<\/h3>\n<p>For the second successive UEFA Champions League matchday, Serie A side <strong>Bologna<\/strong> will face English opposition away from home. Last time out, they succumbed 2-0 to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportscasting.com\/uk\/news\/liverpool-2024-25-fixtures-for-premier-league-champions-league-fa-cup-league-cup\/\">Liverpool<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Ironically, that is Rossoblu&#8217;s only defeat in all competitions since the end of August. However, their form hasn&#8217;t been great with a series of draws to their name.<\/p>\n<p>On GW1, the Italians and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportscasting.com\/uk\/news\/arsenal-fc-vs-fc-shakhtar-donetsk-preview-prediction-team-news-predicted-lineups\/\">Shakhtar Donetsk<\/a> played out a lethargic 0-0 stalemate at the Renato Dall&#8217;Ara. Domestically, Bologna have just one win to their name but have registered six draws. Leaving them in mid-table.<\/p>\n<p>On Saturday, Vincenzo Italiano&#8217;s side were cruising to a comfortable 2-0 away win against lowly Genoa. Goals from Riccardo Orsolini and Jens Odegaard put them ahead before a late brace from Andrea Pinamonti ensured a share of the spoils.<\/p>\n<p>Such unpredictable form is why the best <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportscasting.com\/uk\/betting-sites\/football\/\">football betting sites<\/a> in the UK price the Serie A side at 9\/2. The draw can be backed at 3\/1 with Aston Villa 7\/10.<\/p>\n<h2>Aston Villa Vs Bologna Team News<\/h2>\n<p>Ahead of the match, the latest <strong>Aston Villa<\/strong> vs Bologna team news indicates the home side may be in line to make some changes to their starting XI.<\/p>\n<p>Jamaican international Leon Bailey could be rested with club-captain John McGinn set to start. The Scot made a cameo appearance against Fulham on the weekend after returning from injury.<\/p>\n<p>On the topic of injuries, long-term absentees Tyrone Mings and Boubacar Kamara are available for selection. Both had been sidelined for several months.<\/p>\n<p>For <strong>Bologna<\/strong>, the trio of Nicolo Cambiaghi,\u00a0Oussama El Azzouzi\u00a0and\u00a0Lewis Ferguson will definitely be unavailable. There are also doubts over \u00a0Dan Ndoye, Michel Aebischer and Croatian defender Martin Erlic.<\/p>\n<p>In attack, highly-rated youngster Santiago Castro is set to get the nod over Dutchman Thijs Dallinga. Skipper Riccardo Orsolini will likely start on the right-hand side at Villa Park.<\/p>\n<h2>Aston Villa Vs Bologna Predicted Lineups<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Aston Villa (4-2-3-1):<\/strong> Martinez; Konsa, Carlos, Torres, Digne; Onana, Tielemans; McGinn, Rogers, Ramsey; Watkins<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bologna (4-2-3-1):<\/strong> Skorupski; Posch, Beukema, Lucumi, Miranda; Freuler, Moro; Orsolini, Fabbian, Karlsson; Castro<\/p>\n<h2>Aston Villa Vs Bologna Prediction<\/h2>\n<p>Aston Villa will be quietly confident of making it three wins from three when they take on Bologna at Villa Park. Unai Emery&#8217;s side are in terrific form and have plenty of attacking talent at their disposal.<\/p>\n<p>With that said, Liverpool found Bologna tough to break down at Anfield. The Italians are certainly no pushovers. Vincenzo Italiano&#8217;s side also have goalscorers in their side but do have defensive frailties.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s why we are predicting a narrow Villa win. They will be buoyed on by a passionate home crowd and have game changers on the bench.
