Unai Emery prepares Aston Villa for Champions League clash with Bayern Munich

Aston Villa's manager, Unai Emery, is gearing up for a significant Champions League match against Bayern Munich, scheduled for Tuesday. Despite the high stakes of facing one of Europe's elite teams, Emery has expressed his commitment to maintaining his established coaching methods rather than adapting to the unique challenges posed by Bayern. He emphasized the motivation and excitement surrounding the match, particularly with the support of Villa's fans at Villa Park. Emery acknowledged Bayern's experience in the Champions League, contrasting it with Villa's relative inexperience in the tournament. He also highlighted the importance of being competitive and adapting to Bayern's tactical approach while trying to impose his own game plan. Additionally, Emery looks forward to facing Vincent Kompany again, having previously competed against him when he managed Burnley. He respects Kompany's coaching journey and acknowledges the challenges he faced last season. Overall, Emery's focus remains on preparing his team to compete effectively against a formidable opponent.
