Shocking footage of Aston Villa and Paris Saint-Germain fans clashing in the French capital has emerged ahead of the clubs' Champions League tie.
Punches and chairs were thrown between the supporters on the streets of Paris.
It comes just 24 hours before Villa's biggest game in years with the Midlands club having not reached this stage of Europe's elite competition since the 1982-83 campaign.
Villa have been expecting a fiery reception from the Parc des Princes crowd for Wednesday's match with midfielder Youri Tielemans backing his goalkeeper Emi Martinez to handle the abuse of the home crowd.
Martinez is one of the prime villains for the French sporting public thanks to his antics after helping Argentina beat France in the 2022 World Cup Final, and he appeared to pour fuel on the fire by travelling to Paris wearing a cap displaying the four titles he has won at international level.
And that feeling of animosity was reflected by the fans as they came together on Tuesday night.
Unai Emery's side reached this stage with an emphatic 6-1 aggregate victory over Club Brugge in the last 16.
