Aston Villa v Hibernian (Europa Conference)

Fixture Date: 31/08/23

Competition: Europa Conference League Play-off

A first European fixture for 13 years sees an all-British affair for Aston Villa, as they host Hibernian in their Europa Conference League play-off tie.

The Claret and Blues have never faced Scottish opposition in European competition, although Villa captain John McGinn spent three seasons at Easter Road before making the switch to B6.

The Edinburgh side, managed by Lee Johnson, overcame Inter Club d’Escaldes and Swiss side Luzern 5-3 on aggregate to reach this stage of the competition and would love to cause a shock against opponents from south of the border.

This second-leg tie on Thursday 31st August is sure to prove a compelling affair, with qualification for the group stages at stake, and this issue of the historic ‘The Villa News & Record’ will be a must-have for all serious collections.

This A5-size 84-page programme will be sent by Royal Mail on Thursday 31st August, and delivery should be expected no longer than three working days after the fixture.

The price for this edition is £3.50, plus post and packaging to a UK address.
