Manchester United and Aston Villa close out the Premier League matchweek on Sunday, Nov. 8 with the home side looking for its first league win in over two months.
The Red Devils finally snapped a long winless streak with a thrilling come-from-behind win over Roma in the Champions League at midweek. Michael Carrick's side enters this matchup as slight favorite at home, despite not tasting success in the league since a 5-2 win over Ipswich Town at the end of August.
According to the top sports books, United is around +115 on the money line to take all three points, with Villa slightly over 2/1 to win.

These two sides leak goals and chances conceded, so there's a good chance this will be a back-and-forth affair with a lot of action. United usually gives up its fair share of shots, which makes Senne Lammens making three or more saves at near even money look enticing. Pinpointing who scores or takes shots in this one is a bit tough. But we know who will be in between the posts for the team who will likely be giving up chances.
