    Well, it's a big night for a number of big name sides including Aston Villa, Zenit St Petersburg and AS Roma.

    Currently, Zenit are going out to Nacional, 5-4 on aggregate. Roma are at 3-3 with an away goals advantage going into the second leg of their tie with MFK Kosice in Rome and Aston Villa must mount a comeback at home as they go into their second leg 1-0 down to SK Rapid Wien.

    And of course Hearts will be live on BBC Two from 7:30pm as they take on Dinamo Zagreb, although it is doubtful that they will progress as Zagreb go into the game 4-0 up. Aston Villa are live on Five also.

    Already through are Shakhtar Donetsk, HAPOEL Tel-Aviv, CSKA Sofia, FC Twente, Hertha BSC Berlin, Fulham, Werder Bremen and Everton.

    Nacional go through in the place of Zenit while Ajax progress.

    Can this be stickied for the season?

    Aston Villa pass up the chance to make it 1-0 on the night and 1-1 overall through an Ashley Young penalty as the Vienna keeper makes a comfortable save.

    Jesus Villa are * at the back - and Vienna's finishing is even worse.

    Guess that's why they're trying to sign Dunne.

    Been an enjoyable game, think Rapid deserved to win overall.

    Their fans are cracking as well.

    I think that is a bonus for us that Villa and Zenit went out tonight.

    Very much so Quigley. Although Roma looked extremely dangerous tonight after they were held 3-3 in the first leg.

    Villarreal and Valencia look like massive favourites to me.
