The 3rd round clash was a good game with Villa probably feeling harshly done by to have crashed out. They’ve since brought in some reinforcements and will be looking to take the spoils in front of their own fans. But can they do it? Let’s check out Thommo’s Aston Villa v Manchester United tips.

It’s a real intriguing one after last weekend. More questions than answers again for Manchester United. Don’t be backing them from corner kicks, guys, that is a no-no for Manchester United. They’ve still not scored in the Premier League this season from a corner.

I think they were very fortunate against Aston Villa. Manchester United have only won one of their last four away Premier League games and that was against Norwich and they’ve lost six of their last 19 Premier League games. They’ve got the joint-most defeats they’ve ever had at this stage, Manchester United.

Maybe it just show you what’s going on at Manchester United. Aston Villa, the signing of Philippe Coutinho, the signing of Lucas Digne from Everton will perk everyone up. The record under Stevie Gerrard, won four lost four.

They’ve lost the last three in all competitions but I do expect them to score so I’m going for Both Teams to Score in this one. I’m going for Aston Villa to Win and if you want a goal scorer it’s Danny Ings to Score Anytime.
