Erik ten Hag will be looking for a riposte from Manchester United when they face Aston Villa again in the EFL Cup on Thursday.
New Villa boss Unai Emery started his spell in charge with a rousing 3-1 home victory over United in the Premier League on Sunday.
But the Red Devils are backed to respond well and a home win with both teams scoring at 9/4 is our first Man Utd vs Aston Villa prediction.
Manchester United Odds
United saw their nine-match unbeaten run come to an abrupt halt at Villa Park.
Leon Bailey and Lucas Digne struck for the hosts inside the first 11 minutes and, although Jacob Ramsey deflected in a Luke Shaw shot just before half-time, the midfielder sealed the home win.
Ten Hag said: “You lose the game at the start of the first half, start of the second half. When you start a game like this, you get beat.
“I am disappointed but I know in the process it will not only go the way up. Setbacks will come and we have to deal with that.”
Villa won 1-0 at Old Trafford in the Premier League in September 2021, but their three previous defeats there were by one goal.
This match to be won by one goal exactly either way is 6/4 in the Man Utd vs Aston Villa odds.
Aston Villa Odds
Emery enjoyed a dream start to life at Villa after leaving Villarreal to replace Steven Gerrard.
The Spaniard talked about winning a trophy at Villa in his unveiling press conference and will want to do the double over United.
“I think it was so important against Manchester United after a long time we didn’t win, to do it,” said the ex-Arsenal boss. “We did it but now it’s to keep it consistent in a regular way.
“We are going to play in Manchester on Thursday and Sunday in Brighton and our next challenge is going to be tough because this team didn’t keep the regularity in those matches away.”
Emery may refuse to shuffle his pack with consistency wanted, while Ten Hag is likely to make changes, but home advantage can still prove crucial.
A 2-1 home win is available at 29/4 and that completes our Man Utd vs Aston Villa betting tips.
