What is at stake for Bayern Munich vs. Aston Villa?

Villa have played a lot of football this summer, taking to the field for five friendlies already, and this will represent their last game before taking on PSG in the UEFA Super Cup on August 12.

Emery's side will have another pre-season fixture after this one, though, taking on Borussia Monchengladbach on August 15, with their new Premier League campaign then beginning away to Brighton & Hove Albion on August 23.

It has been a summer of change at Villa, and it will be fascinating to see whether another top-four finish is achievable for the club in the coming season.

Bayern, meanwhile, have played three pre-season matches this summer, including a staggering 15-0 win over Rottach-Egern at the end of July.

The German champions have three more friendlies against Villa, RB Leipzig and Heidenheim before taking on Dortmund in the German Super Cup on August 22.
