Aston Villa will host Manchester United at Villa Park in Birmingham on Sunday, with kick-off scheduled for 14:00. Aston Villa, under Unai Emery, have made an impressive start to the season, while Erik ten Hag’s Manchester United have struggled for consistency. This preview covers both sides recent form, previous encounters between these two teams, and key players to watch, along with our Aston Villa vs Manchester United betting tips.
Heading into the match, Aston Villa currently sit 5th in the Premier League, having won four, drawn one, and lost one of their six matches. Their offensive play has been effective, with Ollie Watkins and Jhon Durán both contributing four goals each. However, Villa’s defense has been less stable, conceding nine goals so far, and they’ve failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 11 league outings.
Manchester United have struggled to find their rhythm this season, languishing in 12th place with only two wins, one draw, and three losses. Their recent form is a concern, especially after the recent 3-0 loss to Spurs at Old Trafford. United have also failed to score in their last two games, highlighting a lack of cutting edge up front.
Considering the recent form of both teams, Aston Villa have the upper hand, with a more cohesive attack led by the in-form Ollie Watkins and Jhon Durán. Manchester United’s inconsistent performances and failure to score in their last two games point to a tough task ahead. Furthermore, the absence of Bruno Fernandes, who received a red card against Spurs, adds to Manchester United’s woes. However, they have had success in recent meetings with Villa, having beaten them in three consecutive league fixtures.
The Villa Park crowd and Villa’s solid start to the season could see them edging the encounter, but Manchester United’s need for a result cannot be overlooked. Therefore, a draw might be a likely outcome, with both teams finding the back of the net.
Match Prediction: Draw @ 14/5 with bet365.
For score tips, we believe the game could finish in a 1-1 draw, given Manchester United’s inability to score in recent matches and Aston Villa’s leaky defence. Both teams possess attacking talent capable of breaking through, but neither side has demonstrated the defensive solidity needed to keep a clean sheet. Based on these factors, the most likely outcome is a 1-1 stalemate.
Correct Score Prediction: 1-1 @ 15/2 with bet365.
When it comes to Over/Under betting, both teams have shown a tendency to score but also concede goals. Aston Villa have scored 12 and conceded 9 in their six Premier League matches, while Manchester United have netted just five goals and let in eight. Given United’s current goal-scoring drought, our Aston Villa vs Manchester United Over/Under betting tips suggest going for the Under 2.5 goals market. Despite both teams having the potential to score, recent performances indicate a lower-scoring affair.
Over/Under Prediction: Under 2.5 Goals @ 6/4 with bet365.
For those seeking bet builder tips, consider combining Aston Villa or Draw, Both teams to score (yes), and Ollie Watkins to score anytime. Given Aston Villa’s strong form and Manchester United’s defensive struggles, backing Villa to avoid defeat is a smart play. Both teams have shown vulnerabilities at the back, making a “both teams to score” market appealing, especially with Villa’s attack in good form. Ollie Watkins, who has been in great scoring touch with four goals in six games, is a strong candidate to find the back of the net again, making this a well-rounded bet builder.
Bet Builder Tip: Aston Villa or Draw, Both teams to score (yes) and Ollie Watkins to score anytime @ 11/4 with bet365.
