From the source

Aston Villa travel to Barcelona on Tuesday evening with an opportunity to strengthen their Champions League ambitions, although Unai Emery’s side face one of European football’s most formidable attacking teams at the Camp Nou.

Villa have made an impressive start to their European campaign, winning all three of their opening league stage fixtures against Viking, Fenerbahce and Club Brugge.

Another victory would significantly enhance their prospects of progressing to the knockout rounds, although Barcelona’s outstanding form suggests a demanding examination awaits. Hansi Flick has established Barcelona as an imposing force this season, with the Catalan club winning ten of their opening 11 La Liga matches to move clear at the summit.
