The Villans, who were the surprise package of last season after securing a Champions League spot, will be desperate to balance Premier League and European football this campaign.

Villa have splashed the cash to back Emery this summer, with over £100 million being spent on the likes of Amadou Onana, Ian Maatsen, Ross Barkley and Jaden Philogene.

However, they've done well to balance their books, with the sales of Moussa Diaby, Douglas Luiz and Omari Kellyman bringing in over £110m.

Emery's side won their first two pre-season games - however, they lost all of their outings during their tour of America.
