Matchday 6 of the Premier League was quite mediocre for Aston Villa and Manchester United. After a 2-2 draw with Ipswich Town, Villa dropped from the third to the fifth position on the league table with 13 points. However, it was their first draw of the season—along with four wins and 1 loss—ensuring them one league point.
On the other hand, the Man Utd vs Spurs fixture proved pretty disappointing for the Red Devils with a heavy 0-3 loss. The league table saw them run down from the 11th position to the 13th position with 7 points. Apart from two wins and one draw, this was the third loss for Man Utd since the beginning of their Premier League campaign.
But the hustle starts anew over the weekend as matchday 7 of 38 brings with it new fixtures, new challenges and three new points up for grabs for each team. Aston Villa vs Man United is one such interesting match that will determine whether the Red Devils will pull up their socks and bag a victory, or will Villa take back their previous position on the league table.
