High flying Aston Villa host mid-table Manchester United at Villa Park on Sunday, as they look to ramp up the pressure on Arsenal and Manchester City at the top of the Premier League table.
Last Sunday's come-from-behind victory at West Ham was Villa's ninth success in a row in all competitions, their longest winning streak in over 100 years. That incredible streak has moved Villa up to third in the Premier League standings, just three points behind leaders Arsenal. Another win on Sunday will have the Villa Park faithful dreaming of a first top-flight title in over 40 years.
Manchester United's incredible 4-4 draw with Bournemouth on Monday night saw the Red Devils put in arguably their best attacking display of the season. However, familiar defensive frailties meant that they were unable to close out the victory, and it has now been nine games since Ruben Amorim's side last kept a clean sheet

Our Aston Villa vs Manchester United Prediction
These are two teams scoring goals for fun at the moment, so we are expecting a high scoring contest on Sunday afternoon.
United are missing key defenders such as Harry Maguire and Matthijs de Ligt, which makes it hard to see them keeping a rampant Villa attack at bay for 90 minutes.
Despite their superb results, Villa are also having a few defensive issues, and clean sheets have been hard to come by for Unai Emery's side over the last two months.
Taking all of that into account, our prediction for Aston Villa vs Manchester United is: Over 3.5 goals.
