Aston Villa v Celtic (20:00)

John McGinn can do many things, but carrying off a poker face is one we’ve yet to see. That’ll be put to the test tonight, you imagine.

The proud Scot wears his heart on his sleeve and you can usually tell what he’s thinking. We all knew he was gonna get up and join in the dancing in Germany, eh?

The Villa captain has always been a big Celtic fan, so how he handles tonight could be interesting. The same could be said for his family.

His brother Stephen, mum and dad and a few others hopped on a bus down to Birmingham this morning and had a quick word with our colleagues in West Midlands while on a pit-stop in Gretna.

Stephen said there was a lot of excitement and added: “Obviously, we used to go to Champion League games together, myself, John, and my other brother Paul, with my dad. My first thought was it was a big thing.”
