I'm fully rooting on Villa. They have improved at lot compared to the MU. They're good at away and home game. They're also beating Arsenal, and still remain unbeaten until now. So don't forget their opponent is gonna miss so many players(Mbeumo(AFCON), Amad(AFCON), Casemiro(suspend), De ligt, Mazraoui(AFCON) and Meguire, which important players.

It's hard to say no on betting to them due to that so many advantages they get at this moment. Manchester United without Mbeumo is just Bruno FC. It makes sense to take a Villa in this game.

So no draw to happen, but Villa win. 

Manchester United is missing many important players, even their squad has no absentees still doubt Manchester United's victory because this team is always a lot of doubts against any team especially with Aston Villa experiencing a long winning streak.

I am quite surprised that Aston Villa can still get the high odds offered by the bookies while many opposing players are absent, maybe Aston Villa is also playing a lot for AFCON?
I think Aston Villa will win tonight at home, so I'm sure the odds can be won.

The doubts about a Manchester United victory are well founded. So far, Manchester United hasn't displayed consistent play,
so speculation about the club tends to point to United as the winner. So, logically, no matter how you look at it, Manchester United remains crippled.
If United manages to win against Aston Villa, it might boost the team and Amorim's confidence amidst their limitations.
I don't expect much, a draw would be a very good result for United.

Hopefully Alexander Isak is not out for a long long time bit that injury looks pretty serious. He has not had the best of chances since joining Liverpool, sad to see him injured this way.
~

The news says he got injured during his goal celebration? Damn, that's so funny and what a clown he is. I need to find highlights of this  
I have no sympathy for this scammer, I think karma worked as it should here.
Chelsea dropped points again, and even Liverpool managed to catch them. If United wins today, three teams will have 29 points each. Overall, there is intrigue almost everywhere except in the basement, where teams in the relegation zone are likely to remain there.

You don't need to be surprised because Manchester United will keep on being Manchester United even though these players that left for afcon do not plays for the club again, or you expect Manchester United to start playing like an underdog because most of their important players are out?
No if you are asking if my opinion.
Can Aston Villa win this game? Yes because in football anything can happen, and that is how Manchester United can still win this game convincingly regardless of the odd given, so both teams deserves a chance.

There's only one match today. Most of the matches were played yesterday. We don't have a choice, but they've scheduled a really good match for today. Aston Villa, one of the dark horses, and Manchester United, who are slowly recovering, will play. It's a very important match for both teams.

If Manchester United wins, they will climb to 4th place. They will also be only 10 points behind the leader. This is a big reason to still be hopeful for the season. If Aston Villa wins, they will continue to closely follow the top 2. They will not allow the gap to widen to 2 matches. A draw wouldn't be very useful for either team. I think we will see a winner today.

I love your statement concerning Manchester United "slowly recovering". Today's match is going to be a very tough one for them Manchester United cause Aston Villa is one of the most inform club in the league currently, they've managed to get to the top 4 and won't want to drop points, moreover they're the hosting team which gives them more advantage in the match.
 I noticed that the bookies gave Aston Villa the lesser odd which means that they rate them as favorites over Manchester United but there this known fact about the Premier League, which is that it's full of surprises, you'll be surprise to see Manchester United win.

Don't know if this season Amorin will finish by being able to participate in the UCL tournament, Europa League or Conference League?
Their play is still inconsistent so it cannot be concluded that Amorin will do it all easily when the reality is not.

I'm curious how Man United will fare against Aston Villa as a team on a winning streak --- I'm here doubting the red devils, especially since some players are absent for the AFCON cup. I wouldn't bet on Man United that's the point.

Amorim must set a target for next season, he must immediately end his team's inconsistent performance to reach the top four, their chances of qualifying for the Champions League next season are still wide open because they are currently only 3 points behind Chelsea who are in fourth place, United also have the opportunity to catch up with Chelsea's points if they manage to get full points at Aston Villa's home, although it is not easy, they must try to beat Aston Villa in order to improve the mentality of the players to face the challenges in the next match. Amorim must focus more on building a strong and consistent team to maintain their chances of playing in European competition next season.

Many doubted that Man United would be able to get any points in this game, but success depends heavily on their performance. United must find gaps and take advantage of every opportunity to score goals. Although Aston Villa is the favorite team in this game because of their recent consistent performance, United could still spring a surprise because anything can happen in football.

Manchester United chance of qualifying for any European competition and not qualifying is just 50/50 they are not really that bad totally at least they still have some potential in them, like I don't really see them having any troubles when then mentioned players are gone I still see them to keep to their draw form,it will be a thing of joy to see Manchester United qualify for an European competition this season but on my own opinion instead Manchester United to qualify for conference league they shouldn't even qualify at all because I don't really fancy that league it is for the less privilege and Manchester United is not one.

Sunderland, who have made a good start to the season, managed to secure a draw away at Brighton. Both teams had numerous chances throughout the match, but both struggled to find the net. The match ended goalless, but I don't think either team will be too disappointed with the draw.
Arsenal continue to win. They managed to win with a single goal away at Everton and maintained their lead. Arsenal played aggressively away at Everton, who have also made a strong start this season. There weren't many shots on goal, but they still found the winning goal.

Bournemouth's downfall is still going on. Another point loss even in a home match against Burnley. Semenyo is really wasting his time there in this situation. He has made a significant amount of score contribution so far.

I believe he deserves to play for a better team. He is still young by the way (25 years old). Do you think he will get an offer in January already or by next summer maybe? His value in the market is €65m now but hard to imagine how much the team would ask for him.

[Tmoonz]

Chelsea made quite the comeback from 2 goals down in the first 20 minutes of the game to finish in a 2-2 draw. I think Chelsea could have won the game if they took advantage of their chances. Poor Garnacho, he’s getting a lot of heat for his performance today.

Well, I don't think it was Chelsea's destiny to win their today match against Newcastle, ending the match in a draw is indeed a good result cus its definitely better than them losing to their opponent.

The last goal on Chelsea's side was scored by pedro in the 66th minutes, and this mean they still had over 24 minutes of playtime excluding possible ET, 24 minutes was enough for chelsea to score their winning goal if they really meant to win the match.

The condition of the performance of the two clubs in this match looks quite balanced to me because although Newcastle is a little more dominant because of the advantage of playing home but we can see that the performance in this match is not too much different and indeed this draw looks quite appropriate.

It's just that even for Chelsea this is still quite good but of course they have to be more than this if they still want to aim for competition in the race for the trophy.
In their last 5 matches they have lost quite a lot of points and this must be corrected if they still want to compete in the race for the trophy unless there may be other actions when their target is only the zone in the Champions League only if their performance continues like this then it is not impossible that they will also be eliminated.

Chelsea does not show much of an interest for the trophy this season unlike other big clubs, but they might still end up having it if they perform well.

Before the match started alot of individuals where looking down on Newcastle like they are not capable enough to win Chelsea, but forgetting that they are also a strong club and have won most of their past matches this season.

Nevertheless their match was very competitive and I am actually very impressed with how Chelsea defended the ball in the second half and equalised

They actually played well yesterday like the both teams played just fine yesterday I think those early two goals was quite a chance well used by Newcastle United, it is not   all team that can really utilize such chances I really recommend them for that besides that Newcastle is not a team to be underestimated they are actually in a better form for the past few seasons it only appears they are struggling because they made some sell of some of their key players but despite that they are quite keeping the boat moving kudos to them, and for Chelsea I think the boys actually got a very good advice the coach in one way or the other which made them become more serious in the second half.

They are currently in a goalless draw against Aston Villa. While Aston Villa seem to be the better team, the match is actually quite even. Manchester United still have a chance to win. With 15 minutes left in the first half, they haven't managed to score. Aston Villa seem to have the advantage of playing at home, but Manchester United have a less demanding schedule and therefore have fewer tired players on the field.

Aston Villa seem to have the advantage of playing at home, but Manchester United have a less demanding schedule and therefore have fewer tired players on the field.

The way both teams are performing in the first half, the match is most likely to be a draw. Manchester united's overall gameplay today is very organized. Amorim is well aware of Manchester united's weaknesses. United's defense is not very strong. So Amorim is focused on  strengthening his defense today. Manchester united is conducting  their attack after keeping  their defense strong. They are  also trying to dominate the match by possessing the ball. So in  40 minutes we still do not see any goals in the match. Both teams are strong. So sharing the points will not be a bad result for them. But Aston villa has continued their winning streak for a long time. Will they want to break their winning streak ?

It's such a weird result Bourne is losing point just after they are fully dominating the game. From what i've seen they totally dominated the first half - missed so many shoots - continued to repeat the same domination - bottled the win due a slow tempo and a little lapse in the end.

Seeing how bourne keep regressed means it's not a good team for Semenyo to play there. If he's the only good player in the team, it's gonna be a total waste for his career. He has to step up by leaving from there in january.

However, i'm doubting there will be a club that will go for him by pay 65m in winter. He has to ask his club to lower his asking price to leave from there caused by usually teams are only using winter transfer to fix their loophole temporary, not to rebuild the squad.

Indeed, Aston Villa has shown quite good and significant consistency in playing this year, Villa also has quite aggressive attacks and a fairly solid defense. And I don't think Manchester United will be reckless in building attacks, seeing the opponent's opportunities and weaknesses will be the key for United to steal an early goal at Aston Villa home. And Aston Villa certainly won't want to disappoint their fans. This is a golden opportunity for Aston Villa to secure all three points on their home turf. Overall, this match is likely to end in a narrow victory for Aston Villa.

[Distraction]

Arsenal handled the pressure over themselves after Manchester City won. They managed to defeat Everton away but by only 1-0. But the score didn't surprise me truthfully.

Because most of the matches between the 2 teams have ended up with scores like this. Did Everton play well in this match? Not even a bit! 

0.20 xG we are talking about. Very poor, right? But still they managed to keep Arsenal at only 1 goal. I don't know how Saka left the penalty for Gyökeres. He should have taken it I think. Gyökeres doesn't deserve that yet.

[aylabadia05]

I appreciate Morgan Rogers' goal because of the quality of the build-up and finish. I was speechless, holding my head in my hands.
As we saw, Manchester United's goal scored by Cunha started with a mistake by Matty Cash, who was disrupted by Dorgu. Instead of passing the ball to Sesko, Cunha immediately targeted the right corner of Aston Villa's goal.

Both teams put on an impressive display at Villa Park. Manchester United played well despite their poor finishing. 
Bruno was unable to continue in the second half due to an injury sustained in the first half. 
I didn't expect this match to end in a draw, but United won.

[Abbatty]

It been an interesting first half so far, both teams have had good chances to be up in this game but it still at 1-1, it was a half that seems would end in a 0-0 draw but a late goal from both side in this first half. Morgan rogers have been the brightest at his side, it was just a matter of time for him to score which he surely did.

Manchester United also have had a couple of chances, they are playing more like a team that want all 3 points but it going to be difficult for sure. The second half is not far to begin let see which side walks away with all 3 points or both teams will have to settle for a draw at the end.

What a beautiful game of football that we are seeing here. The two sides mean business I must especially commend Manchester United for the way that they have played so far against a Villa side that even top teams like Arsenal finds it difficult to handle. I will have to commend united because from the first half till now they have been fantastic, most especially the defense setup of Manchester United they have been fantastic because most of Villa runs has been cut from the wing and those are the areas that Villa has power playing against opponents.



United should hold on to this win because they conceive goals at the dieing minutes, defending and trying to score goals to win should be the game that Manchester United should do in this remaining minutes of this game.

If these Aston Villa guys can continue like this with their forthcoming matches, there are chances they will surprise us this season going by the way they have been so serious about their games and winning as much as they can lately. I really want to see Aston Villa at the top too if possible even though I prefer Arsenal over them but any club which does not push with much seriousness should not be rewarded. I don't like this diehard fans thing even though it adds its own flavors to it but sometimes even if you are a fan to a club, yu should not sympathize with them too much because some of them are just playing mess. Now look at how Man U is losing their match against Aston Villa. Is this not a mess?

Arsenal is a champion in waiting, win like this is what wins you league, picking maximum point even when you don't deserve it, arsenal fought hard until the end high pressing and forcing your opponent to make mistake, that is the quality of a champion in waiting,

Watching the English Premier League team Aston Villa play in the last few matches, it seems that luck is working in their favor now because if this team can maintain the way they are performing at the moment, they will definitely surprise us. This Premier League team is definitely playing with great determination which has now turned into their success as we can see that they are now leading from third place in the standings.

Today, all the fans may have seen another amazing performance from them as they defeated the traditional Manchester United 2-1 in a very competitive match, however it must be admitted that Rogers contributed the most to the victory in this match.
