  • West Midlands Roads advised motorists to expect heavy traffic on M6 Junction 6, while closures were enacted on Witton Lane and Trinity Road in Birmingham.
  • Villa maintains an imperious home record in Europe, winning 18 of 20 matches over three seasons, while Fenerbahce arrives fourth in the Super Lig after an 8-0 September victory.
