Man United vs Aston Villa prediction and odds ahead of Premier League clash

Manchester United will be looking to go one step closer to securing their place in the Champions League next season when they welcome an Aston Villa side who are in resurgent form under Unai Emery. The visitors have now emerged as late contenders for a place in the European places along with Brighton & Hove Albion, Tottenham and Liverpool.

Erik ten Hag's side are the favourites going into this match at 8/11 with Betfred while the Villains are 10/3 to maintain their impressive unbeaten run and extend it to 10 matches and a draw is 3/1. The hosts will be looking to beat Villa having lost twice and drawn once in their last three meetings.

The Red Devils currently sit six points ahead of Tottenham Hotspur with two games-in-hand in fourth place and will be keen to extend that lead to nine as they look to achieve the minimum objective of Champions League football at Old Trafford next season. However, Villa will be looking to leapfrog Spurs into the Europa League spots and put pressure on the likes of Brighton who were superb against Wolves earlier this weekend.
