It’s already been a memorable return to Europe for Aston Villa this season
The Gunners secured their place in the top eight after winning all four of their games at home
The Reds secured their place in the top two with a game to spare
"It is a massive, massive deal for Aston Villa to finish in the top eight" of the Champions League qualifying league, says former Premier League striker Chris Sutton. "You think about how they are trying to develop under Unai Emery and looking to compete on the domestic and European fronts, to get a top eight place is credit to the manager and the team," Sutton said on BBC Radio 5 Live.
