Manchester United vs Aston Villa Match Preview

Manchester United welcome their fellow Premier League side Aston Villa at Old Trafford in the third round of the FA Cup.

Manchester United have been average under the new manager Ralf Rangnick despite losing just one game. The wins they have been getting under Ragnick have been close games and he has not faced any top club, so at the moment Ralf has not really been tasted.

Pogba is still out through injury and Anthony Martial would not be selected because he has already said he wants to move to another club. Good news for United is Lindelof is back after he was out for few games due to Covid. Bailly is with Ivory Coast for Africa Cup of Nations.

Aston Villa have not been bad under Gerrard but he has lost all his games against top sides such as Chelsea, Liverpool and Manchester City. Therefore, he would feel hard here too.

Aston Villa have signed Coutinho but he would not be available here and could be ready in the Premier League clash against Manchester United next week.

As Ralf Rangnick has been criticized by some fans, he would take this game very seriously. He would field the best squad possible and I expect Manchester United to find a way to win this game at full time.
