Aston Villa ML (+110) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Aston Villa have been unstoppable of late, winning their last six Premier League games to maintain their surprise challenge for the title. We’re backing them to extend their winning streak at bet365 with a convincing performance at home.
United haven’t lost any of their three games in December, but showed a concerning dip in form at home in their last game, a 4-4 draw against Bournemouth.
The game highlighted their defensive deficiencies, which surely caught the attention of a Villa team averaging 2.4 goals a game during its nine-game winning run in all competitions.
Score prediction: Aston Villa 3, Manchester United 1

Morgan Rogers, Attacking Midfielder, Aston Villa (+260) ⭐⭐⭐
Morgan Rogers will like his chances of scoring against Manchester United’s shaky defense. The Aston Villa star has been involved in eight goals in his last 11 Premier League appearances.
We’re expecting him to add to his season tally of five goals by finding the back net again at Villa Park on Sunday.
Another solid performance will strengthen the 23-year-old’s case to be named to Thomas Tuchel’s England squad for the 2026 World Cup, cashing $26 on a winning play at DraftKings.
