Lille

After 28 matches played in Ligue 1 for the 2023/24 season, Lille is in fourth place with 49 points, three points behind Monaco, who are in the direct Champions League qualification zone. Fourth place is the position that allows them to play in the qualification of the Champions League next season. The gap from the nearest pursuer, Nice, is five points, which means that Lille have a good opportunity to at least keep the fourth place. Let's remind that the victory in the Conference League is just a place in the Europa League. Lille lost the first match in Birmingham with the score of 1:2, i.e. now they need to win the home game to make it to the semi-finals of the Champions League.

Aston Villa

Birmingham have a historic chance to qualify for the Champions League via the EPL. At least in the division standings, they are in fourth place with 63 points and three points ahead of Tottenham, their nearest opponent. Their situation is similar to that of Lille, obviously the championship is the priority, but a draw in France will be enough for Aston Villa to make it to the semi-finals.
