Manchester United vs. Aston Villa: Prediction, date, venue, and how to watch Premier League match

The Red Devils have surged up to third place thanks to their incredible undefeated run that began before Michael Carrick's arrival as caretaker and continued through to earlier this month. Man United's unblemished 2026 finally came to an end in Matchweek 29, but they stand in a very favourable position thanks to their red-hot form, and they remain on track for a Champions League berth barring a disaster end to the campaign.

Meanwhile, Villa are in a similar position, although they have fallen to fourth place amid a run of poor results, including back-to-back league losses heading into this match. The Villans do come into Sunday's contest having rediscovered their winning ways outside of the Premier League however, as they traveled to Lille on Thursday and claimed a 1-0 victory over the French outfit in the first leg of the Europa League's round of 16.

Manchester United vs. Aston Villa: What the managers are saying

Michael Carrick, Man United

“I think we’re always in a test, you know. It’s always about what’s next, what you’re going to react [like], whether you’ve won, whether you haven’t won, whether you’ve drawn, what’s going to be the reaction? What’s the group [like]? What’s the emotions in it? How do we make the best of it? What’s the motivation for the next game? And driving that forward."

Unai Emery, Aston Villa

(via Aston Villa)

“We are going to face Manchester United on Sunday and they are now feeling confident, they’re strong at home, they’re playing good football and they have very good players.

“It’s a really huge challenge on Sunday, but analysing how we are in the table overall, we are fourth with the same points as Manchester United with 51 and they are third.

“Sunday is day 30 and there are still points to play for, a lot of points to play for. There are still matches to play, and we are so, so motivated in the two competitions we are fighting in.

“The result yesterday was fantastic and gave us confidence but how we achieved it was important for us because I think we played a good match.

“The level we are going to face on Sunday is a high level.”
