A team to beat Villa? (6)
I believe the answer is:
palace
This could be a double definition.
'a team' is the first definition.
The answer and definition can be both groups as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'beat villa?' is the second definition.
The definition and answer can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe there's an association between them I don't understand?
'to' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for palace that I've seen before include "very nice house" , "Official residence of a sovereign" , "Royal residence" , "Regal mansion" , "Castle" .)
