Unai Emery says his players can feed off the energy of their fans as Aston Villa seek to overturn a 3-1 deficit in Tuesday’s Champions League quarterfinal second leg against Paris Saint-Germain.

The newly crowned French champions came from a goal down at the Parc des Princes last week, with a stoppage-time Nuno Mendes strike changing the complexion of the tie.

“Our expectation is to get a good result in the second leg,” Villa manager Emery told reporters on Monday. “Of course the fact that they won 3-1 is changing something.

“But a lot? No. Why? Because we have to win. We had to win with 2-1 and with 3-1 now.”
