Premier League
After 11 consecutive rounds without a loss, Manchester United finally lost. This happened in the last round, and although they played a whole half with one player more, they ultimately succumbed 1:2 in their visit to Newcastle. As hosts, they are on a streak of four consecutive wins, which they will try to continue now, maintaining the third place in the standings, where Aston Villa had long been positioned.
Aston Villa has the same number of points as United, but a worse goal difference. Emery's team was dropped from the third position after a decline in form. Villa managed only one win in the last six rounds, and in the last two, they suffered unpleasant losses – 1:4 at home to Chelsea and 0:2 away to Wolverhampton. At least on Thursday, they celebrated a 1:0 victory in their visit to Lille in the Europa League. However, at Old Trafford, they have five consecutive losses.
Prediction: both teams to scoreManchester United has been performing better than Aston Villa lately, but I will go with the option for both teams to score in the match. United continues to regularly concede a goal or two, which against Aston Villa is also not out of the question.
