The Spaniard returns to the Premier League for the first time since his ill-fated spell with Arsenal. He subsequently went on to win the Europa League for the fourth time with Villareal, but will certainly feel has something to prove in England. He has not had much time to make his mark with his new players though, only formally taking over from Steven Gerrard on Tuesday.

Man United seem to be finding their rhythm under Eric ten Haag. They have beaten Tottenham and West Ham in recent weeks and earned a late draw against Chelsea. They beat Real Sociedad on Thursday too. However, the 0-1 win on that tricky away trip was not enough to see them top their Europa League group and they will now face a playoff.

The Villans may be without first-choice goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez, who suffered a concussion last weekend and will have to be assessed closer to kick-off. Bruno Fernandes is suspended for the Red Devils, having picked up his fifth yellow card of the Premier League season. Anthony Martial and Jadon Sancho are also doubts, while Raphael Varane will not feature again before the World Cup. 

Can Emery’s arrival give his new side a boost, or will ten Haag’s team extend their unbeaten run? Find out by watching the Aston Villa vs Man Utd live stream.

Here's how they line up: 

Aston Villa: Martinez, Cash, Konsa, Mings, Digne, Dendoncker, Douglas Luiz, Ramsey, Buendia, Bailey, Watkins.

Man Utd: de Gea, Dalot, Lindelof, Martinez, Shaw, Casemiro, Eriksen, Rashford, van de Beek, Garnacho, Ronaldo.
