Match Facts

  • Manchester United have lost just two of their last 37 home league games against Aston Villa (W28 D7), going down 1-0 both times in December 2009 and September 2021.

  • Following their 2-1 win in December, Aston Villa are looking to complete the league double over Manchester United for the first time since 1954-55.

  • Manchester United have kept 30 clean sheets against Aston Villa in the Premier League – only Arsenal have kept more against a single opponent in the competition (31 vs Newcastle).

  • Having lost three of their first six Premier League games this season (W2 D1), Manchester United have since lost just three of their last 23 (W13 D7), though they did slip to a 2-1 loss at Newcastle United last time out.

  • Manchester United have scored in their last 17 Premier League games, since losing 1-0 to Everton in November. They last had a longer scoring streak between November 2012 and April 2013 under Alex Ferguson (23).

  • Aston Villa have won just three of their last 11 Premier League games (D3 L5); since the first game in this run (1-4 defeat to Arsenal on Dec 30th), only four sides have accrued fewer points than Unai Emery’s side (12) in the competition.

  • Michael Carrick has won all five of his Premier League home games as Manchester United manager (1 in 2021, 4 in 2026); only three managers have won each of their first six home matches in the competition: Sven-Göran Eriksson (first 9 in 2007), Carlo Ancelotti (first 7 in 2009), and Manuel Pellegrini (first 11 in 2013-14).

  • Bruno Fernandes’ goals and assists have been worth 23 points to Manchester United this season. In Premier League history, only three players’ goal involvements have been worth more to the Red Devils in a campaign – Robin van Persie in 2012-13 (38), Eric Cantona in 1993-94 (26) and Cristiano Ronaldo in 2007-08 (25).

  • Of the 150 players to have had 1000+ touches in the Premier League this season (coming into this weekend’s games), Aston Villa’s Morgan Rogers has had the highest percentage of them come while under pressure (83.7% - 1190/1422).

  • In six Premier League games this season in which none of Boubacar Kamara, John McGinn or Youri Tielemans have started for Aston Villa, Unai Emery’s side have won just once (D2 L3), averaging 0.8 points-per-game. By contrast, the Villans have won seven of 10 league matches in which all three have started in 2025-26 (D2 L1), averaging 2.3 points-per-game.
