And they'll arrive hoping to consolidate their position in the automatic qualification places after a terrific start to their campaign. Unai Emery's side are currently in fifth position having taken 13 points from a possible 18 in their first six fixtures, which includes a seismic win over Bayern Munich.
The Villans should arrive in a confident mood given their recent form. Aston Villa have won three of their last four, and pulled off a terrific comeback from a two-gaol deficit against Arsenal over the weekend to move them to within two points of the top four.
They also have the trump card in manager Emery, who has won each of his last six games against Monaco across all competitions, with the aggregate scoreline of those games being 23-4. Only Atalanta (9), Liverpool (9) and Feyenoord (7) have won more points in Champions League away games so far this season than Aston Villa (6), who have scored exactly three goals in their two away victories in the competition.
