Aina said they must give their best to make it to the final.
“At the beginning of the season, these are the sort of games you want to play in, so we have to soak everything up and try our best. It will be a tough game against Aston Villa, we already know how good they are,” Aina told Nottingham Forest TV.
The Reds will host the first leg at the City Ground on Thursday, 30 April.
