Europa king Unai out to produce another special night in Basel

- FROM JOHN TOWNLEY in BASEL

UNAI EMERY'S memories of his third Europa League triumph will come flooding back tonight as he returns to St Jakob-Park - but he says he wants to "build a new moment" with Aston Villa.

Emery has a strong Europa League CV, winning the trophy on four occasions, including a victory over Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool in 2016 in Basel.

And now his Aston Villa side have been installed as early favourites to win the competition this campaign.

They will be targeting a fifth win in six league phase matches against Basel tonight, which could see them finish the night in the top two of the table.
