Was die Sicht geprägt hat
- + Bologna have to open the tie at some stage, and that should create transition space for Villa as the game stretches.
- + Villa keep Watkins with Rogers, McGinn and Buendía behind him; Bologna start Ravaglia in goal and a reshaped back five with Lucumí unavailable.
- + This is cleaner than laying Villa on a handicap in a second leg where they already lead 3-1.

Warum es im Board ist
The chase script is real here: Bologna need goals, but they arrive with a weaker defensive setup and a reserve keeper, while Villa's XI is built to punish open grass and can still add more attack from the bench.
Hauptrisiko
Tactical Counter: If Bologna's back five keeps the game cagey for too long and Villa choose control over trade-offs, this can stall at two goals.
