Betting on Manchester United Football Club
Despite going through a rough patch in the past few weeks, Manchester United shouldn’t have any trouble securing one of the Champions League spots awarded by the Premier League.
With three wins and a draw in its last four games, the Red Devils need to move on from the bitter taste left by their Europa League elimination and focus on solidifying their fourth-place position in the standings.
This team currently stands on 60 points and, after its draw against Tottenham, maintains a six-point lead and has played two fewer games than both the Spurs and Aston Villa, whom they will face this weekend.
The key to the recovery of Erik ten Hag’s team has been scoring more frequently. Before its current positive streak, Manchester United went three games without scoring a goal. However, in these four unbeaten matches, it has scored seven goals and only conceded two.
Regarding its home performance, Manchester United has only lost one out of 15 games played at Old Trafford, and that loss came in the first match of the championship. No team has conceded fewer goals at home than the eight it has against it. This is great news, especially considering that four of its last seven matches will be played at home.
Possible Lineup (4-2-3-1): David De Gea; Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Victor Lindelof, Luke Shaw, Diogo Dalot; Fred, Casemiro; Antony, Bruno Fernandes, Jadon Sancho; Marcus Rashford.
Betting on Aston Villa Football Club
The second half of Aston Villa’s season is truly impressive. The team led by Spanish coach Unai Emery has been a complete whirlwind in recent weeks and in the blink of an eye, it has secured a place in European competition.
Thanks to nine consecutive games without losing, seven of which were won,the Villains now have a spot in the Europa League after climbing to sixth place in the standings with 54 points, the same as Tottenham in fifth place but with a better goal difference.
During this unbeaten run, Aston Villa has only conceded two goals, both in 1-1 draws. In the other seven victories, the team did not allow any goals to its opponents, including four away games.
Precisely on the road, Villa has been performing much better lately. Even though it lost six out of its first 12 matches, it has managed to string together four games without a loss as visitors, and has only conceded two goals during that period.
This is great news for a team that will play three out of its last five matches away from home, and four of those matches will be against direct rivals for European spots, such as Manchester, Tottenham, Liverpool, and Brighton.
Possible Lineup (4-2-3-1): Emiliano Martinez; Ashley Young, Ezri Konsa, Tyrone Mings, Lucas Digne; Douglas Luiz, Leander Dendoncker; John McGinn, Jacob Ramsey, Emiliano Buendia; Ollie Watkins.
JefeBet Prediction
The recent face-offs between these two teams have given us many goals on the scoreboard. However, this time the outcome could be completely different.
Manchester United is struggling to score goals, but it has managed to compensate with an impressive defense, especially when playing at home, where it has only conceded eight goals in 15 matches.
On the other hand, Aston Villa is one of the hottest teams in the Premier League, and its success has come from a great defense that has allowed only two goals in its last nine games.
In the last four direct matchups between them, at least four goals were scored in each of them. However, considering their current form, at JefeBet, we believe that defenses will be the protagonists.
Prediction: Under (MAN 1 – AST 1)
