Key Game Highlights
Intermission: Kyiv 0-1 Crystal Palace
An excellent start to the European competition campaign for Crystal Palace, with Daniel Muñoz’s looping header giving the away side a deserved lead in Lublin.
Intermission: Celtic 0-1 SC Braga
One more tough European evening for the Celtic manager thus far, as the away team are ahead through Horta's long-range shot, which had Kasper Schmeichel struggling at nothing.
Match Context
Forest's most recent home game in Europe was a sobering occasion: optimistic after returning from Bayern Munich with just a 2-1 loss, the home side shipped five scores to a dominant Bayern Munich team in 1996. Tonight’s opponents, Midtjylland, did not even exist back then – the Danish side were formed by a fusion in 1999 but have gathered extensive continental expertise in the last decade, and represent a challenging test for the Forest manager, still seeking his first win as Nottingham Forest manager.
Aston Villa have also made an underwhelming start to the season and confront a more renowned continental opponent in Feyenoord Rotterdam – whose stadium in Rotterdam was the scene of Villa’s greatest night back in 1982. Whilst supporters savor a nostalgic journey to the stadium, Unai Emery’s primary worry will be sustaining momentum after securing back-to-back wins over Bologna and Fulham in the previous seven days.
Regarding difficult beginnings, Russell Martin might have finally secured a game and boosted his standing among Rangers fans by around 0.0001%, but SK Sturm Graz – beaten by Midtjylland in their European opener – look capable of sending the under-pressure coach to rock bottom. Another manager under pressure, Aberdeen FC's Thelin, welcomes Shakhtar to Pittodrie.
All those matches start at 8pm (British Summer Time), with coverage from Palace's European trip to face Dynamo Kyiv in Poland and Celtic's home Europa League game against Braga, plus all the other exciting Euro action. Stay tuned!
