Aston Villa travel to face Manchester United looking to pile more Premier League pressure on manager Michael Carrick. United are favourites following their midweek win in Europe and can be backed at 2.15 with bet365. Visitors Villa are available at 3.20 with the draw priced at 3.60.
We expect this to be a close game but for Villa to have too much for a struggling United. The visitors have started to click after an Unai Emery rebuild and can bring Carrick's position under further scrutiny.

Nicholas Jackson has scored in four of his last five games, inclduing a double against Manchester City.
Villa have been better this season and are carry less pressure than this United team.
