Aston Villa v Man Utd LIVE: Result and reaction after dreary draw keeps pressure on Erik ten Hag

A change for both teams: Casemiro replaces Kobbie Mainoo; Ian Maatsen is on for Lucas Digne.

How much did that win over Bayern Munich take out of Aston Villa? Even at this juncture, they just seem lacking in the precision and purpose that often characterises their performances. Still ten minutes or so to find something.

It comes to nothing as the prospect of total stalemate looms ever larger. Joshua Zirkzee’s terrible touch squanders a Manchester United counter-attack and prompts a roar of encouragement from the frustrated home fans, not used to seeing their team so lethargic.

Can either side manufacture a winner? Ollie Watkins pats the ball against the shins of Victor Lindelof to win a corner.

It was perhaps a shame for United that Rashford, their most dangerous attacker, probably had to be substituted when he had been booked and then could have been dismissed. Enter Antony, who had only played one minute in the Premier League this season. Meanwhile, Emi Martinez has carried on where he left off against Bayern with a superlative save from Fernandes.

Another defensive injury issue, both back fours in the wars today - Diego Carlos appears to have tweaked a muscle, though with Ezri Konsa off after 11 minutes earlier, he may have to soldier on. The Brazilian gets back to his feet and seems content enough with the flexion in each of his legs - on he will go, for now at least.

Wasteful from Morgan Rogers, summing up a pretty messy performance from him and his Aston Villa forward cohort. The winger gets to the byline but skews his “cross” into the patrons beyond Andre Onana’s goal.

Off the crossbar! A beautiful free kick from Bruino Fernandes bends beyond the fingertips of Emiliano Martinez at full stretch, but it ricochets away with a doink off the woodwork.

Alejandro Garnacho takes a tumble under pressure from Matty Cash, who has a grasp of the winger’s shirt and thus can’t really complain when the whistle blows. It’s well within Bruno Fernandes’s range.

Manchester United, having survived a free kick, make a double switch: Erik ten Hag knows Marcus Rashford won’t get another reprieve, while Rasmus Hojlund looks a little leggy. Antony and Joshua Zirkzee are on.
