Aston Villa have a slender 1-0 lead ahead of the second leg of their last-16 tie with French side Lille in the UEFA Europa League. However, Villa are on a poor run of form of late. The Premier League side have won just one of their last six games across all competitions. That run has seen them get knocked out of the FA Cup and drop into fourth place in the Premier League table.

Aston Villa may have taken the lead in the first leg of their UEFA Europa League last-16 clash with Lille, but the tie is not over yet.

The Premier League side beat their French rivals 1-0 away from home last Thursday thanks to a goal from England striker Ollie Watkins.

However, Lille are alive and kicking ahead of the return leg at Villa Park this Thursday.

That is partly down to the fact Villa have struggled for form in recent weeks.

The victory in France was their only win in their last six games across all competitions - a run which has seen them knocked out of the FA Cup and drop into fourth place in the Premier League table.

They were beaten 3-1 at the weekend by Manchester United.

Villa still have plenty to play for, but they are desperate for a win.
