Manchester United will collide against high flying Aston Villa on Boxing Day. Who will come out on top tonight?
The Red Devils and the Villa Park outfit have only met once in the PL on Boxing Day that was in 2000 and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer netted the winner.
Transfer: AS – Man Utd ready to bid £43.4million to secure signing
However, this time around, Villa, who are level on points with 2nd place Liverpool, should be considered favorites to earn all three points.
Erik ten Hag could make four changes to the squad that started in the defeat against West Ham United on Saturday.
The Dutch manager has confirmed that Varane should be able to return and the French star must partner Evans in the central defense in front of Onana.
Diogo Dalot may replace Aaron Wan-Bissaka to feature in the right back position. Shaw should retain his left back place.
In the center of the park, Moroccan international, Sofyan Amrabat, should return to partner Scott McTominay.
In the attacking third, Marcus Rashford would likely return to replace Antony on the right wing. The England international could feature with Garnacho and captain, Fernandes, in the attacking midfield.
Rasmud Hojlund is still searching for his first goal in the Premier League and with Martial out, the Danish forward should start again in the CF role.
Man Utd predicted 4-2-3-1 lineup vs Aston Villa: Onana; Dalot, Varane, Evans, Shaw; McTominay, Amrabat; Rashford, Fernandes, Garnacho; Hojlund.
