Premier League highlights,Can Manchester United survive the away game?
Villa currently holds the fourth spot in the table, ensuring their qualification for the 2024-25 Champions League is within reach. However, a potential threat from Tottenham Hotspur looms, as a win against Brighton & Hove Albion could push Villa down to fifth. Also, if Manchester City defeats Everton on February 10, Villa would find themselves eight points behind the champions, having played the same number of games.Despite recent setbacks, Villa has maintained an impressive record of scoring in 32 consecutive home games across all competitions at Villa Park. However, Erik ten Hag's rejuvenated Manchester United squad is also formidable, and they don't need a scoring masterpiece to make their mark.
In their recent match against West Ham United, Manchester United faced what could have been a challenging encounter, considering West Ham's previous victory over the Red Devils in December. However, under Ten Hag's guidance, Manchester United effortlessly handled the situation at Old Trafford. Rasmus Hojlund scored the opening goal, and Alejandro Garnacho netted twice, securing a comfortable win.This victory extended Manchester United's impressive start to 2024, where they have triumphed in four out of five fixtures in the Premier League and FA Cup. The only exception was a 2-2 draw against Tottenham Hotspur. With this win, Manchester United moved ahead of David Moyes's West Ham into sixth place in the Premier League standings. However, closing the eight-point gap to fourth-placed Villa remains a challenge, and their 31 goals scored still represent the lowest attacking record in the English top flight.
