- Manchester United has the most points from losing position (18) in Premier League
- Aston Villa has the most clean sheets (8) in Premier League
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Manchester United form and stats
When playing at home in the Premier League, Manchester United have managed 3 wins, 2 draws and suffered 3 defeats from 8 games. Two home wins in a row for Manchester bring valid hopes of a third.
The Manchester United supporters enjoyed the previous match, watching their team host Wolverhampton Wanderers in Premier League and win 1-0. Before that, Manchester United played out a draw 2-2 when visiting Leicester City.
Some amazing scenes last match, when Marcus Rashford scored the winning goal three minutes into stoppage time.
The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Manchester's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played two games, won two matches, drawn zero and lost zero.
Manchester are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 10 goals in 8 games. It's worth mentioning that 7 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Manchester United have conceded 12 from these games.
Aston Villa form and stats
Aston Villa's travelling support has been rewarded for their time and money so far this season, having witnessed Aston Villa, who have the most clean sheets (8) in Premier League, collect 16 points from their 7 away matches in the Premier League. 5 victories and 1 draw have created these points (and only 1 defeat).
Aston Villa has to pack their bags again for the second away game in a row. Last time they traveled to Chelsea for a Premier League game that ended a draw (1-1). A home win before that, celebrating 3-0 vs Crystal Palace.
As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Villa playing away, we found six games. Results were zero away wins, two draws and four home wins.
Aston Villa has displayed an ability to score goals in away matches in the league this season, 13 goals from 7 games. Villa are tight as a drum on their travels, having allowed the opposition only 3 goals away.
Head 2 Head
H2H stats regardless of arena (last ten matches): Manchester seven wins, two draws and Aston Villa one victory. As for goals, six matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), four games had two or less.Top Goalscorers
