Why Bet on Aston Villa?

Aston Villa have lost ground in the fight for the title in England. However, they regained the fourth position by taking advantage of Tottenham’s slip. The Villans thrashed Sheffield United 5-0, thanks to goals from John McGinn, Ollie Watkins, Leon Bailey, Yuri Tielemans, and Alex Moreno. 

Unai Emery’s side reached 46 points, five behind Liverpool, who are currently the leaders. They won two of their last five games and have a very dangerous offense, scoring 49 goals. Their 30 goals against make them the fourth-best backline in the competition. 

There is no doubt that their most dangerous player is English striker Watkins, who has eleven goals and ten assists. His 21 appearances in goals are only surpassed by Mohamed Salah’s 22. 

At home, the Villans lost a 10-game unbeaten run after losing 3-1 against Newcastle. 

Villa Park has several injured players: Emiliano Buendia, Lucas Digne, Jhon Duran, Tyrone Mings, Pau Torres, and Nicolo Zaniolo. 

Why Bet on Manchester United?

Manchester United are on the upswing, having not lost in their last five matches in all competitions. In their last game, they defeated West Ham 3-0, with a brace from Alejandro Garnacho and Danish Rasmus Hojlund, who has scored in four consecutive matches, during which time he has also provided two assists. 

The good run has the team in sixth place with 38 points, eight points behind the last team that qualifies for the next Champions League, which is precisely Aston Villa. 

The fact that they have scored three goals is also good news for coach Erik ten Hag, as his team has been struggling on the offense. So far, they have 31 goals, the worst figure in the top eleven of the league. Their best converter is Scottish midfielder Scott McTominay, who has six goals. It is a poor figure. 

Away from home, the Red Devils have won five games but lost five others while drawing once. 

Tyrell Malacia, Anthony Martial, Mason Mount, Lisandro Martínez, and Aaron Wan-Bissaka are injured. 

Final Betting Analysis: Aston Villa vs. Manchester United

These two clubs already played this Premier League season, and United won 3-2 at Old Trafford, with goals from Alejandro Garnacho (2) and Rasmus Hojlund, precisely the same scorers from last weekend. The last game at Villa Park was a 3-1 for the locals. 

The numbers at Gambyl Exchange have Aston Villa as the favorite. The Moneyline for them shows 2.116, while Manchester United has 3.41, and the draw is at 4.005. 

A great match in the Premier League, where Manchester United will try to show their good moment against a team like Aston Villa. However, the three points will end up going to the Villans, who at home are an almost unbeatable rival. We believe a 2-1 will be the final result.

Go for a win in Aston Villa’s Moneyline. If you bet $100 at 1.185, you will gain $111 for a total payout of $211.
