United v The Villa Pre-Match thread
« on: December 12, 2019, 01:52:17 PM »
Saturday 14 December 3.00PM
Bramall Lane, Sheffield.

The Villa visit one of the great English football clubs this Saturday coming and one of our big rivals in the early years. The club that coined the name United as they were the first United in English football. It is befitting that this match is on a Saturday and kick off is at 3.00.

Have a feeling we'll win.

Not sure why, or how, but I just 'reckon' they'll have an off day and we'll win 2-0.

They will be right in our faces from the very first minute but theres more to them than physicality and I think they will outfight and outplay us. 3-1 to them.

Some games you can guess the probability of the outcome but to me a win, loss or draw would not be a massive surprise.

I'm sure there must be an alternative potential outcome.

I'd be very surprised if it wasn't one of those outcomes.

Either team could win this or it might be a draw.

This is my main concern as well that we won't cope with the physicality they will bring.

We got stuffed here last season and it could have been 6 or 7. We mugged them off with the comeback at our place but they absolutely murdered us for the first 80 minutes. I’m travelling in hope rather than expectation and a repeat of the Snodgrass 90th minute curler would be much appreciated.

1-1.
