Form and Team Stats

Aston Villa

Aston Villa arrive in outstanding form and arguably with more momentum than any side in the division. Unai Emery’s men have won nine consecutive matches across all competitions, including a dramatic 3–2 comeback victory away at West Ham last week. They begin this round just three points behind league leaders Arsenal and are now chasing a historic tenth straight competitive win, something the club have not achieved in over a century.

Villa Park has become a fortress, with nine successive home victories, and only Manchester City have collected more Premier League home points in 2025. Despite their strong results, Villa have often grown into games rather than dominated them early, leading at half-time in just four league fixtures this season. That pattern has still been effective, particularly against sides who fade after the interval.

Manchester United

Manchester United remain frustratingly inconsistent despite signs of attacking improvement. Ruben Amorim’s side have dropped ten points from winning positions this season, most recently in a chaotic 4–4 draw against Bournemouth where they surrendered the lead three times. Defensive fragility remains an issue, with 18 of the 26 league goals conceded coming after half-time.

Away from home, however, United have shown resilience, going five matches unbeaten on the road while scoring at least twice in each of those fixtures. Goals have rarely been an issue for United, but control late in matches continues to let them down, particularly against in-form opponents.

Head to Head and Predicted Starting XI

Head-to-Head History

Manchester United have historically dominated this fixture, recording 41 Premier League wins against Aston Villa – the second-most one-sided H2H in league history. However, Villa have won Emery’s first home meeting with United and now enter this clash in far stronger form than in most previous encounters. United have also failed to keep Villa quiet in recent seasons, with goals at both ends becoming a common theme.


Predicted Lineups

Aston Villa (4-2-3-1):
Martínez; Cash, Konsa, Lenglet, Maatsen; Kamara, Tielemans; McGinn, Rogers, Watkins

Manchester United (3-4-2-1):
Lammens; Yoro, Heaven, Martínez; Dalot, Mainoo, Fernandes, Shaw; Mount; Cunha, Šeško
