Legia Warszawa - Aston Villa: Form Analysis
This will be the first-ever meeting between Villa and Legia. Legia Warsaw started their Conference League journey in the second round of qualifying. In what is their debut in the tournament, Kosta Runjaic’s men won three of their six qualifiers and drew a further two. They defeated Midtjylland in the playoffs on penalties after the tie had ended 4-4 on aggregate. The Polish side arrive for this match having gone unbeaten in their last seven matches. They have won four times in this run. The Militarians drew 1-1 with Piast Gliwice last weekend in the league to see a two-game winning run come to an end.
Aston Villa are playing in Europe for the first time since the 2010/11 season of the Europa League. Unai Emery's men finished seventh last season in the Premier League to qualify for the playoff round of this tournament. They demolished Hibernian 8-0 in the playoffs over two legs. The Villans have started the season in excellent form and have won five of their seven fixtures. They have scored at least three goals in all of their five victories with the latest being a 3-1 success over Crystal Palace. The two defeats they have suffered however have been heavy as they have conceded at least three goals in both. Villa are in the group stages of a European club competition for the first time in 14 years. With Unai Emery at the helm, winner of four Europa League titles, Villa will be confident of a deep run in the competition.

Legia Warszawa & Aston Villa Squad Analysis
Legia Warsaw are expected to line up as they did last weekend against Piast Gliwice. Captain Josue will be available for selection as his red card over the weekend does not apply here. Ernest Muci scored to earn the point against Gliwice with his 69th-minute strike, his fifth of the season. He should again partner top scorer Tomas Pekhart in attack. Pekhart has scored eight goals this season.
Unai Emery will also have the same squad that played over the weekend as no injuries were reported. Leon Bailey, who scored twice in the playoffs, scored against Crystal Palace for his fourth of the season. Together with Moussa Diaby and Matty Cash, the three players have scored four times already this season.
