Freiburg vs Aston Villa Odds

Match Result (90 mins) - Aston Villa

Freiburg are enjoying a phenomenal season, but it's so difficult to look past Aston Villa winning in 90 minutes here.

They are led by the competition's most successful manager in Unai Emery, who's won four titles, and they've won 12 of their 14 European fixtures this season.

The Villans only missed out on top spot in the league phase courtesy of goal difference, and are 8/13 favourites for Wednesday's contest for good reason.

Ollie Watkins to Score 2+ goals

Ollie Watkins can lead his side to victory here by grabbing a couple of goals, and he looked particularly menacing in Friday's demolition of last season's Premier League champions Liverpool.

The brace he bagged on Friday was his third of 2026 alone, and the England international has scored 10 goals in his last 11 appearances, racking up 31 shots in that time.

The former Brentford man has been especially prolific in Europe, netting four in his last six appearances.

Johan Manzambi Total Shots - 2+

Freiburg's Johan Manzambi has registered a club-high 94 shots across all competitions this term, averaging roughly 2.84 shots per 90 minutes in this competition, with 32 shots across 14 matches. In addition, he's had 11 shots on target in this competition, during that time.

The 20-year-old has had two or more shots in 11 of his last 12 appearances, totalling 34 shots in this period, and looks a decent option to have a few attempts on Wednesday.
