Team News:
The stage is set at the Theatre of Dreams. A victory for Manchester United will secure an unprecedented 20th league title with four matches to spare. Few would bet against them, especially given their extraordinary dominance over Monday's opponents Aston Villa in the Premier League era.
It's United who are now revelling in being the noisy neighbours in the wake of Manchester City's capitulation against Tottenham on Sunday.
That result was arguably more bad news for Villa, who were helpless as most of their relegation rivals picked up points at the weekend. With United desperate to clinch the title in front of their home supporters, Villa can expect pumped-up opposition on the pitch and in the stands.
Sir Alex Ferguson, for one, is eager to eclipse Chelsea's top-flight points record of 95 by winning the remaining five matches.
"There won't be any slacking off," Ferguson said. "(The record) is not beyond us at all. Can Manchester United win five games in a row? How many times have we done that? Despite Villa's current predicament and the occasion at Old Trafford, manager Paul Lambert wants his under-pressure side to enjoy themselves ."It's going to be a fantastic place to play football, against the champions elect. If you don't enjoy going playing there, there's something wrong. If you can't handle the pressure, you're not going to be a footballer. It's what you're having a career for."It's a game no-one expects us to get anything from but we're certainly a goal threat. They have been the most consistent team in the league but from our own point of view we need the points every bit as much as they do."
Head-to-head
Aston Villa have won only once in their last 32 league and cup games against Manchester United - a 1-0 triumph at Old Trafford in December 2009 when Gabby Agbonlahor scored with a header.
In league games only, United have lost just one of their last 34 meetings with Villa home and away since 1995 (W24, D9, L1).
Manchester United
United are vying to avoid suffering consecutive Premier League home defeats for the first time since 2002. They last went successive home matches without a win in 2007, losing to West Ham in May and then drawing their opening game of the following season against Reading.
The Red Devils need to win their remaining five matches to eclipse Chelsea's top-flight record of 95 points, set in 2004-05.
United have scored in 65 successive Premier League home matches since a 1-0 defeat by Aston Villa in December 2009.
They have recovered 28 points from losing positions in the league this season, a divisional high.
Wayne Rooney is expected to make his 400th appearance for United. He has scored nine Premier League goals for the club against Villa. It's his equal best record against any club, along with Bolton, Fulham and Newcastle.
Aston Villa
Villa have taken 10 points out of the last available 15 and won their last two away matches.
They have conceded in each of their last 17 league games, the longest top-flight run without a clean sheet this season. They have already set an unwanted club record of 61 goals against in a Premier League season.
Villa have conceded more goals after half time (41) than any other club.
Gabby Agbonlahor needs one goal to eclipse Dwight Yorke's club record of 60 in the Premier League.
Christian Benteke has scored 10 goals in his last 13 league appearances. He is two goals away from equalling Yorke's club record Premier League tally of 17 in a single season.
