Ollie Watkins is worth more than all of Club Brugge’s attacking options combined ahead of Aston Villa vs Club Brugge in the Champions League.
Unai Emery’s side have made a faultless start to their Champions League campaign, picking up three wins from their opening three matches.
The Villains are yet to concede a goal in Europe, keeping clean sheets against Young Boys, Bayern Munich and and Bologna so far.
However, Aston Villa are coming off a crushing 4-1 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League, conceding four goals in the second half.
This defeat will give Club Brugge a touch of confidence on Wednesday evening, with the Belgian side looking for their second win in Europe.
So far, Nicky Hayen’s side have lost to Borussia Dortmund and AC Milan, while picking up their singular win against Sturm Graz in GW2.
The Belgian side have made a mixed start to their Jupiler Pro League campaign, as they look to defend their title and make it five league titles in six seasons.
Brugge currently sit second in the table, seven points behind Genk but are finding form once again after winning their last three league matches.
Beating Aston Villa will be a difficult task, especially when you look into the squad values of both sides – as Ollie Watkins is worth more than the Club Brugge’s entire attacking roster combined.
