Celtic vs Aston Villa History

Famously, Celtic were the first British team to triumph in UEFA’s showpiece competition, winning the 1967 edition of the European Cup. That crown was earned after goals from Thomas Gemmell and Stevie Chalmers gave Jock Stein’s side a 2-1 win over Inter Milan in Lisbon. The Bhoys returned to the final three years later, this time taking on Dutch side Feyenoord; though Gemmell was once again on target, they lost out 2-1 in Milan on this occasion. In the UEFA Champions League era, Celtic have rarely progressed beyond the group stage.

Aston Villa’s impact on the European Cup was immediate. In 1981/82, they qualified for the premier tournament for the first time and raced all the way to the final, where they met the German juggernaut Bayern Munich. Much against the odds, the English side emerged victorious, with Peter Withe scoring the only goal of the game. In 2024, the Midlands side returned to the competition for the first time in over forty years.
