After last night’s win, Aston Villa head coach Unai Emery expressed that qualifying for the Champions League alleviates pressure on his players ahead of the Europa League final next week. He stated, “Now we can play the final, only thinking for a trophy. It is something making sense of everything we are trying to build here.”

Emery emphasized the importance of the league, describing it as “the most difficult league.” He acknowledged the team’s journey this season:

  • Started poorly
  • Had a fantastic three-month stretch
  • Faced a downturn

Despite these challenges, he noted, “The consistency and demands were high and we never gave up. We were always focusing strongly on the league and today is a summary of the season.”

In other matchday highlights, Chelsea is set to face Manchester City in the FA Cup final, but that's not the only significant matchup. It’s the final day of the Scottish Premiership season, where league leaders Hearts meet second-placed Celtic in a critical clash at Celtic Park. Hearts require just one point to secure their first league title in 66 years.

Additionally, the Women’s Super League (WSL) concludes its season with Manchester City poised to lift the trophy for the first time in a decade. Arsenal travels to Liverpool at Anfield aiming for second place, while Chelsea takes on Manchester United at Stamford Bridge.
