Manchester United is favourite to beat Aston Villa at 5/4 (2.25) with bet365. At 2/1 (3.0) to win, Villa are the outsiders.

Cristiano Ronaldo is the 15/4 (4.75) favourite to open the scoring against a team he has put eight goals past in 13 previous encounters, while Danny Ings is the hosts’ 6/1 (7.0) favourite to break the deadlock.

Having won 17 and lost none of their last 24 trips to Villa Park, Manchester United look like strong value at 5/4 (2.25) to come out on top against a Villa team that have lost five of the last seven fixtures.

After winning four of his first six matches in charge - suffering narrow defeats to Manchester City and Liverpool in the other two games - Steven Gerrard now comes into this game on the back of three successive defeats.

The Liverpool legend would love to end that run against a Manchester United side that have not lost at Villa Park since 1995, coming out on top in 17 of the subsequent 24 visits.

Ralf Rangnick is under some pressure to extend that strong record following the disappointing 1-0 home defeat against Wolves in the last league game, a result that saw them lose ground in the hunt for Champions League football.

Having edged past Villa by a single goal earlier on in the week, United look set for another tight game at Villa Park on Saturday.
