    FT: United 1-0 Villa. Manchester United take three key points in the fight for the Champions League qualification places. The high pressing of Ten Hag's team made it difficult for the Villains to play the ball out from the back. It was not until the 39th minute that the Old Trafford side managed to open the scoring thanks to a Bruno Fernandes goal. Villa improved in the second half and could even have scored an equaliser in the 80th minute when Luiz' shot was cleared off the goal line.
