Looking at the table, they are only 2 points above the relegation zone, and they lost 0-4 to Newcastle in the last round, so their impression is still not high. In contrast, Villa are undefeated in their last 9 official matches, with 7 wins and 2 draws in that time, so this is the kind of game that deserves more attention. So, even if tonight is Villa's new manager Emery's debut, the favorites should still be the Red Devils.
But the midweek cup
United traveled to the United States, and although they won 1-0, they failed to win the first place in the group. The last moment of the game, the manager even let Maguire substitutes to play forward support, which side shows that the current Manchester United in the center position, there is no more suitable players than Crowe. Tonight's game, B Fernandez suspended,, Sancho and Ma Xiaer's injury is still not completely improved, in this case, C Luo and Rashford is the inevitable choice of Manchester United striker line, the other quota is estimated to be produced between Erlanga and Joe, and Eriksson is likely to go to play the front to replace the B Fei.
To give a data detail, Crowe is the main player of Manchester United in the UEFA Cup this season, starting all 6 UEFA Cup group matches, but in the Premier League, Crowe started a total of 4 times, and 2 of these 4 matches United did not score, the total number of goals is 3. The UEFA Cup in midweek was Crowe's 3rd consecutive start for United, and at his current age and physical state, the expectations for the center forward can't be too high.
Looking at Villa, in their first game after sacking Gerrard, Villa won 4-0 at home in a frenzy, cheered on by the home fans, with the reinstated Ince scoring twice, and attackers such as Buendia playing brilliantly, it is clear that this home-type team has the ability to play with their attacking firepower.
