Aston Villa will look to continue their recovery from a miserable start to the season when they host a Fenerbahce side packed with former Premier League talent. Villa’s 2-2 draw with unbeaten Brentford on Saturday means Unai Emery’s men have now only lost once in six matches, having initially struggled to cope with the loss of several key players.
Three of those six games have ended in victory, including their Champions League opener away to Club Brugge , and the midlanders will be hoping for similar against Fenerbahce . Villa have won all three of their previous meetings with the Turkish giants, including during last season’s march to the Europa League title when Jadon Sancho netted a first-half winner in Istanbul , but Fener will be no pushovers.
Boasting a side including Mason Greenwood, N’Golo Kante, Ederson, Romelu Lukaku and former Villa loanee Marco Asensio , Fener are unbeaten in seven European games this season and have only lost twice in all competitions. Our opening Aston Villa vs Fenerbahce prediction is a draw @ 3/1.

Form Guides
Aston Villa form guide
Villa fans must have been fearing the worst after seeing their Europa League -winning team dismantled and a new-look side start the season with successive defeats to Paris St Germain , Brighton and Arsenal followed by a draw with Hull .
Villa scored only one goal in that run, teenager Brian Madjo's strike in the UEFA Super Cup , but they have now found their range and are averaging 2.5 goals a game since their 0-0 stalemate with the Tigers .
Nicholas Jackson has netted three times in those five matches, including against Brentford at the weekend, and he is Evens to get on the scoresheet against Fener . John McGinn also looks tempting @ 5/2. The Scotland midfielder also struck on Saturday, as well as opening the scoring in Villa’s 3-2 Champions League win at Club Brugge.
Fenerbahce form guide
Fenerbahce had to take the long route to this stage of the Champions League after finishing runners-up to Galatasaray in the Super Lig last season. They had to see off Gornik Zabrze , Sturm Graz and Lyon to reach the league phase, where they recorded a 1-1 home draw with Roma in their opening fixture, with Birmingham -born Archie Brown on the scoresheet.
Domestically, Ismail Kartal's men have had a mixed start and are currently fourth in the Super Lig , three points behind leaders Gala after seven games, but they head to Villa Park on the back of an 8-0 mauling of Eyupspor and 3-0 win at Rizespor either side of the international break.
Greenwood scored twice against Eyupspor to take his season tally to six and the former Manchester United youngster is 9/4 to add another at Villa Park . Asensio , who opened the scoring against Rizespor on Saturday, is 4/1 to net against his old club while veteran marksman Lukaku is 9/4 to open his account for the Turkish giants.
