Huge Three Points for Emery’s Men?

Man United were beaten in midweek by fellow Premier League side Tottenham Hotspur in the UEFA Europa League final. The 1-0 loss in Bilbao summed up their season, and the end of their miserable 2024-25 campaign cannot come soon enough.

United go into the final weekend languishing in 16th position in the Premier League table. The Red Devils have struggled from start to finish, suffering 18 losses and conceding 54 goals. Ruben Amorim’s men have taken just two points from their last eight league games and have not won since mid-March.

Aston Villa are fighting for a UEFA Champions League place. Unai Emery’s men are in the mix on the final day, sitting sixth on 66 points. The top-five fight has gone to the wire, with just one point separating Newcastle United in fourth from Nottingham Forest in seventh.

The Villans are one of the form teams in England’s top tier, picking up eight wins from their last nine league fixtures. Only Manchester City have beaten them in league action since February. Last time out, Aston Villa eased to a 2-0 home victory over Tottenham to keep their Champions League hopes alive.

Recent Manchester United vs Aston Villa Head-to-Head Results

The game at Villa Park in October ended in a 0-0 draw, extending Man United’s unbeaten run against Aston Villa to five. Since Villa won 3-1 in Emery’s first game in charge in November 2022, United have won four and drawn one.

The Red Devils ran out 3-2 winners in this fixture last term. Aston Villa were two goals up at the break, but an Alejandro Garnacho brace levelled the scores before Rasmus Hojlund’s 82nd-minute winner.

Manchester United vs Aston Villa Betting Tips & Predictions

United’s midweek Europa League loss was their third league and cup defeat on the bounce. The Manchester club are winless in the Premier League since a 3-0 victory at Leicester City on March 16th. This will be United’s lowest ever EPL finish.

Aston Villa have it all to play for on the final day. Their recent record in this fixture is poor, but we are backing Emery’s troops to get the right result at Old Trafford on Sunday – the away win is available at 1.73. Also, back the visitors to score over 2.5 goals at 3.00.
