Aston Villa head coach Unai Emery stated that a reduced capacity at Villa Park will not serve as an excuse for his team. Aston Villa are scheduled to play their first Champions League match with the reduced attendance against Fenerbahce on Wednesday. The stadium will host approximately 7,000 fewer supporters than usual during the European fixture.
Emery emphasized the importance of unity, urging the team and fans that they must try to be together despite the lower attendance. The fixture comes alongside broader plans for Aston Villa to eventually expand their home ground capacity to over 50,000.
