Nottingham Forest has the advantage as the East Midlands club travels west to face fellow English Premier League team Aston Villa today in the second leg of this UEFA Europa League semifinal at Villa Park.
Chris Wood’s second-half penalty ensured Nottingham Forest claimed a narrow 1-0 victory in last Thursday’s first leg at the City Ground. The match saw Tricky Trees midfielder Elliot Anderson controversially escape a red card following a clumsy challenge on Villa striker Ollie Watkins.
Both teams rested key players in their last Premier League matches. While that decision appeared to backfire for Villa, who lost 2-1 at home to relegation-threatened Spurs on Sunday, Forest eased to a 3-1 win over Chelsea.
Aston Villa takes on Nottingham Forest at Villa Park on Thursday, May 7. Kickoff is set for 8 p.m. BST in the UK, making it a 3 p.m. ET or 12 p.m. PT kickoff in the US. It’s a 5 a.m. AEST start in Australia on Friday.
Aston Villa manager Unai Emery is aiming for a record fifth Europa League title as a manager, having guided Sevilla to three titles in this tournament and masterminded Villarreal’s triumph in 2021.

How to watch UEFA Europa League games with a VPN
If you’re traveling abroad and want to keep up with the action while away from home, a VPN can help enhance your privacy and security when streaming.
It encrypts your traffic and prevents your internet service provider from throttling your speeds. Additionally, it can be helpful when connecting to public Wi-Fi networks while traveling, providing an extra layer of protection for your devices and logins. VPNs are legal in many countries, including the US and Canada, and can be used for legitimate purposes such as improving online privacy and security.
However, some streaming services may have policies restricting VPN use to access region-specific content. If you’re considering a VPN for streaming, check the platform’s terms of service to ensure compliance.
If you choose to use a VPN, follow the provider’s installation instructions to ensure you’re connected securely and in compliance with applicable laws and service agreements. Some streaming platforms may block access when a VPN is detected, so verifying if your streaming subscription allows VPN use is crucial.
