Aston Villa vs Manchester United
Prediction
- Aston Villa have won just one of their last 35 league matches with United but do fair better when the two meet away from Old Trafford, opening the scoring in 4 of their last 5 meetings outside of Manchester.
- Wayne Rooney's return is timely as he has scored 8 goals in his last 10 matches against Aston Villa, while Robin van Persie has 8 in his last 9 against the Villans, including a hat-trick in their most recent encounter.
- Villa have kept-back-back clean sheets at home but their ability to keep United at bay relies heavily on the fitness of the likes of Vlaar and Luna at the back.
