Tipster’s Angle

Manchester United have dominated this fixture against Aston Villa over the years as they have won 13 of the last 17 head to head matches, while Aston Villa has just won one match. So, this is also tending towards Manchester United. By considering the recent goal scoring form, this is expected to be a high scoring thriller.

Tip: Total Goals Over 2.5 @ 1.60

In six of the last 10 head to head matches, over 2.5 goals were scored, with a total goal count of 28 goals at an average of 2.8 goals per match. In the last nine matches that Manchester United had played across all competitions, over 2.5 goals were scored in seven of those matches. In the last eight matches that Aston Villa had played across all competitions, over 2.5 goals were scored in seven of those matches. Also, over 2.5 goals were scored in all of the last four matches that Manchester United has played on home turf and all the last four matches that Aston Villa played on the road. So, it is very likely that over 2.5 goals will be scored at 1.60 odds available at the Betway sportsbook.

Tip: Both Teams To Score @ 1.77

Manchester United managed to score a goal in all of the last nine matches that they have played across competitions. And they have seen both teams scoring in seven of those matches. Aston Villa on the other hand have scored in seven of the last eight matches that they have played across competitions. In the last ten head to head matches, both teams managed to find the back of the net on six occasions. Manchester United have kept a clean sheet in just one of the six matches that they have played this season. With the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo, Bruno Fernandes, Danny Ings and Ollie Watkins, it is likely that both teams will score at least a goal at 1.77 odds available at the Betway sportsbook.

Conclusion

Manchester United will be looking to go better than last season where they threw away a good lead in the points table to Manchester City. They have started off this season brilliantly and would want to continue. Aston Villa have started to gain momentum as well but it might take a special effort to take something from this clash.
