The defeat means Villa must secure a victory against Celtic next week to guarantee a place in the knockout stages, after previously winning their first three matches. Despite the setback, manager Unai Emery insists his team will not ease up in their upcoming clash against Celtic. Meanwhile, Celtic's chances of advancing also hinge on their performance against Young Boys, as they need a win to stay competitive in the group. The match at Villa Park is now critical for both teams, with stakes heightened following Villa's recent loss. Commentary from analysts suggests that Villa may face the Celtic match with less pressure if they secure a win against Monaco, allowing them to focus on enjoying the game.
