After choosing profits over their supporters when it came to pricing up their Champions League home tickets, Unai Emery's men return to Villa Park in the Premier League. A win over Everton will be the perfect tonic for when Villa fly off to Switzerland to begin their Champions League adventure.

We look ahead to the Everton game.

It's supposed to be a season of double-celebration with both the 150th anniversary and Aston Villa's return to Europe's top table in the Champions League, so why have the club decided to cold-heartedly price many fans out of Champions League tickets and price Villa Park tickets way above the likes of Liverpool, Newcastle, Manchester City and Celtic?

We also catch-up on the latest Villa News, Three Points and look back at the Leicester City game.

The story of the first game back at Villa Park for the 2024/25 season was mainly off the pitch with queuing chaos and overflowing urinals greeting unfortunate Villa fans, yet on it, in terms of the bigger picture, Aston Villa are evolving nicely, despite the result against Arsenal.

In Champions League draw week, there's plenty to be optimistic about, but certainly basic standards at Villa Park for fans leave a lot to be desired.

Three strikes and out. Aston Villa return back from their US tour, where results weren't great, but the games provided plenty of experimentation for Unai Emery and the first opportunity to look at his new key players. Where there any concerns?

We also look at the big striker issue Villa currently have heading into the Champions League and Premier League campaign.
