Aston Villa vs Manchester United Analysis
Both of these sides will be looking for three points, in what promises to be an excellent game for both punters and EPL betting sites.
Aston Villa
Unai Emery has been balancing his Aston Villa squad expertly over the past few games and he will be hoping his side can head into the international break on a high. Villa have the Champions League to balance, with Bayern Munich paying a visit to Villa Park this week and it is truly a return to the big-time for the Holte Enders. This will be a big game for Villa in terms of the top 4 battle and they will be eager to get one over United here.
Team news: Tyrone Mings and Boubacar Kamara continue to sit out for Villa.
Aston Villa Predicted Lineup:
Martinez, Carlos, Konsa, Torres, Digne, Barkley, Onana, Tielemans, Ramsey, Rogers & Watkins.
Manchester United
It has been a bleak start to the campaign for Manchester United, who have lost 3 of their opening 6 games and they look to be a side really under the pump. Erik ten Hag remains the man in charge for now and how United need to find some inspiration from the Dutchman. Injuries continue to blight their playing squad but performance levels have been well below par and United are a side under heaps of pressure, with not much expected of them here from punters or Premier League betting sites.
Team news: Leny Yoro, Tyrick Malacia, Luke Shaw, Kobbie Mainoo and Harry Maguire will all miss out here for United.
Manchester United Predicted Lineup:
Onana, Dalot, Mazraoui, de Ligt, Martinez, Ugarte, Eriksen, Fernandes, Garnacho, Diallo & Hojlund.
Aston Villa vs Manchester United Prediction
This should be a fantastic contest at Villa Park, with both sides in desperate need of a win. Villa’s home form last season was key to them managing to finish inside the top 4 and they will want to make Villa Park a fortress again this season. Manchester United meanwhile have been under the cosh so far this term, but they know that one good result could enable them to turn the tide. However, confidence is high in the Villa camp and Unai Emery’s men should win here.
Prediction: Aston Villa to win the match – 13/10 (+130) – Rhino Bet.
