If Unai Emery, for some reason, leaves Aston Villa right now, he will still be remembered as the best club's manager in the 21st century. After decades on the margins of English top football, Aston Villa are relevant again. In the Champions League, they started with six points from two rounds, while in the Premier League, the Villans are fifth after six matches with two points fewer than the league leader, Liverpool. 

Aston Villa are in an outstanding form. They won six of the last seven matches in all competitions. In the previous game, Aston Villa won 1-0 at home against Bayern Munich. Stats were on the guests' side, as they had significantly better xG and the ball in their feet two-thirds of the time. However, one defensive mistake was enough for Jhon Duran, the Colombian golden boy, to put the ball in the net and secure all three points for the home side. 

Manchester United under Erik ten Hag is not working. The Red Devils collected only seven points in six Premier League matches, so they are closer to the bottom than the bottom of the table. Manchester United didn't work before Erik ten Hag. It might not work with the next manager, but they have to do something. Interestingly, after a 3-0 defeat against Tottenham in the previous league round, Manchester United now have more defeats with three or more goals margin since Alex Ferguson left than in 1035 matches under the club legend. 

Manchester United have not won in the last four matches in all competitions. In the previous game, they played 3-3 on the road against Porto. Manchester United were losing until the second half's stoppage time, but Harry Maguire scored an equalizer and prolonged ten Hag's life in the club. 

Aston Villa vs Manchester United pick: Aston Villa to win

The difference between Aston Villa and Manchester United is enormous at the moment. We should expect Unai Emery's team to win on Sunday against the struggling giant from Manchester.
