Aston Villa v Manchester United Match Preview
After the level of delirium which was found on Wednesday night, Unai Emery now has to make sure his players do not suffer from the delayed effects of a European hangover – one that could present itself after Aston Villa’s incredible showing in the Champions League.
A first blaring of the Champions League anthem through the Villa Park speakers but not the first time Jhon Duran has played the role of super sub perfectly and not the first time the Colombian forward has scored from long distance either.
The Colombian forward looped his effort over the stranded Manuel Neuer and by the time the ball had dropped over the line, the already raucous home crowd found managed to collectively add a few more decibels to the atmosphere.
An atmosphere that played a considerable part in nullifying the Bayern Munich attack but at the same time, Villa goalkeeper Emi Martinez also had a hand in making sure Harry Kane did not restore parity in the dying moments of the game.
Three more points for the West Midlands outfit in their inaugural Champions League bid and whereas they come into the weekend on a high, their Premier League opponents find themselves in a considerable state of flux.
Failure to win in any of their last four matches in all competitions and moments away from a second successive defeat in less than a week – were it not for Harry Maguire’s injury time equaliser against Porto, the pressure would have ratcheted further on Erik ten Hag.
The Manchester United manager breathing a sigh of relief as United left the Estadio do Dragao with a point to their name – a point that subsequently doubles the size of their Europa League current account.
However, there is a sense of out of the frying pan and into the fire when you consider just how bad United were against Tottenham last Sunday and although the club’s hierarchy have backed ten Hag to stay in charge in the short-term, his long-term prospects are hanging by a thread.
Especially with the October international break looming and if the Red Devils return to Manchester with nothing to show for their upcoming league exploits, the pause in Premier League activity may also be the end of ten Hag’s managerial tenure.
But now it is time for the first of my two tips and because of Villa’s home form, I am backing them to ward off any European hangover with a win in front of their own support. Success for Unai Emery’s men at the sacrifice of a clean sheet is priced at 13/5 with Paddy Power.
In addition to this, I am going to opt for a correct score pick and although United will get onto the scoresheet once, I envisage Villa causing them misery by scoring three times themselves. The 3-1 home win can be found at odds of 16/1 with bet365.
