**Manchester United's form is rotten, but Aston Villa just got hammered 3–0 twice in a row.** This is basically a "who wants it less" situation at Old Trafford. 🔴

United are 1W–3L in their last five and looked dreadful against Bournemouth at home. Villa have won twice lately but got absolutely dismantled by Barcelona and Bournemouth on the road. Neither team is exactly firing right now, but the home crowd might just edge this one.

Key storylines:

- **Bruno Fernandes** and the United midfield need to control the tempo early; Villa's **Kamara and Gomes** pairing will fight hard but are vulnerable to pace
- **Rashford** has to stay sharp — Villa's wing defense is stretched with **Wan-Bissaka** missing
- **Jackson** leads Villa's attack without **Onana**, so United's backline (minus the injured **Shaw**) can't afford sloppy marking in transition

Expected lineups:

- **Manchester United**: Lammens, Martínez, Maguire, Yoro, Dalot, Tielemans, Santos, Rashford, Fernandes, Mbeumo, Zirkzee
- **Aston Villa**: Suzuki, Torres, Lindelöf, Manzambi, Cash, Kamara, Gomes, Mbaye, Buendía, McGinn, Jackson

Prediction:

**Manchester United 2–1 Aston Villa**

United edges it at home despite patchy form; Villa's injury chaos finally catches up.
