Aston Villa’s valiant pursuit of Europa League glory continues on Thursday night, when Maccabi Tel Aviv arrive in the English Midlands on a mission to make their mark on the competition. The Villans are 10th in the League Phase standings after three games, while the Lions of Zion are in 32nd place. Check out our match prediction below!
This is the first time that Aston Villa and Maccabi Tel Aviv will meet in European competition, and while a mighty battle is expected on the pitch, there is plenty expected to be going on off it as well. Villa Park has been declared a no-fly zone for Thursday, and reports suggest that 700 officers are expected to be on high alert, ensuring crowd safety when the Israeli outfit arrives in Birmingham.
As if getting a result on enemy territory is not difficult enough, Maccabi Tel Aviv will have to face the Lions without the support of their loyal fans, who have been banned from attending the match. The tension will be at fever pitch for this one - let’s get into the key stats!

Aston Villa - Maccabi Tel Aviv FC: Form Analysis
After winning their first two games in this season’s Europa League, Aston Villa are now hoping for an immediate bounce back after suffering a shock 2-1 defeat to Go Ahead Eagles on Matchday 3.
That loss ended the Villans' five-match win streak in all competitions. Since then, they stunned Man City at home 1-0 but failed to do likewise at Anfield this past weekend, losing 2-0 to Liverpool.
The hosts are massive favourites here, understandably so, given their excellent record at Villa Park, where they are currently riding a four-match win streak across all competitions.
Aston Villa have only lost one home game in all competitions since October 2024!
Meanwhile, Maccabi Tel Aviv is the only team in the Israeli Premier League that is still unbeaten after nine games this season, but they have struggled to find the same level of success in Europe.
The Yellow and Blues’ only point in this competition came in the opening week via a goalless draw against PAOK, while they lost to Dinamo Zagreb (3-1) and Midtjylland (3-0) on MD2 and 3, respectively.
However, the visitors have a solid away record, unbeaten in their last six matches in all competitions (W4 D2). They have also kept clean sheets in each of their last five outings dating back to August 28.

Aston Villa & Maccabi Tel Aviv FC Squad Analysis
Ollie Watkins has endured a tough start to the season, scoring only once in 14 games across all competitions. However, it would be unfair to blame the England international solely for Villa’s attacking struggles as he has had very little supply up front.
That may change this week, with Emiliano Buendia expected to return to action after missing the trip to Liverpool. Tyrone Mings picked up a hamstring issue against the Reds and is now expected to be sidelined for a few weeks.
Youri Tielemans is closing in on a return but is only expected to resume training next week, while Andres Garcia remains the only long-term injury absentee for Unai Emery’s side at present.
Donyell Malen could be one to watch for the hosts in this match!
Ido Shahar has scored in his last two matches for the visitors and could be brought back into the starting lineup after featuring on the bench against Midtjylland on Matchday 3 of this competition.
Teenager Sayd Abu Farkhi has scored Maccabi Tel Aviv’s only goal in their Europa League this season, but he will struggle to displace Dor Peretz in attack, with the skipper currently being the team’s top scorer this season.

Aston Villa will be determined to bounce back from their shock in Deventer last month, and they are the clear favourites here, but it will not be easy to break down an opposing defence that has not conceded in their last five away games. Our Aston Villa vs Maccabi Tel Aviv prediction is BTTS (NO).
