Manchester United vs Aston Villa Prediction & Betting Tips - Carabao Cup

Prediction published on 07/11/2022, 13:54  by Daniel Ngulu in Carabao Cup Prediction

Manchester United and Aston Villa are set to face off for the second time in a week, this time in the League Cup, a game that comes just four days after Villa's 3-1 win over United in the Premier League. Manchester United will be at home for this game and will hope to avenge the defeat suffered at Villa Park on Sunday. That loss was United’s first in the last 10 matches, and it also disrupted their run of three straight clean sheets. United are on a good home run; they go into this game with five straight clean sheets and four wins in the last five matches. In the last six home matches though, United have managed more than a goal in just two. In their last two League Cup matches, Manchester United were eliminated at home by a Premier League opponent.

Aston Villa have a new manager in Unai Emery and in his first game in charge, they thrashed Manchester United 3-1. His second game in charge will still be against United and the former Arsenal coach who prides in never losing to United during his time with the Gunners, will be targeting a win at Old Trafford. His team has an injection of confidence, and this is what they will carry to Old Trafford after winning two of their last three matches. Villa have failed to score in three of their last five matches and in those matches, they conceded two or more goals. Villa have also been poor away from home; their only win in away matches this season was against Bolton Wanderers in the League Cup.
