Birmingham, United Kingdom: Unai Emery is hoping Aston Villa can summon the spirit of the club's 1982 European Cup final win over Bayern Munich when the German giants visit Birmingham in the Champions League on Wednesday.
Villa's return to the top level of European football after a 41-year wait began successfully with a 3-0 win at Swiss side Young Boys two weeks ago.
But Villa Park's first taste of the competition since it was re-branded as the Champions League brings back memories of the club's greatest-ever night.
Villa upset the odds to beat a mighty Bayern side, featuring club legends Paul Breitner and Karl-Heinz Rummenigge, 1-0 in Rotterdam.
"It is a special, special match for everyone," said Emery at his pre-match press conference on Tuesday.
