Gameweek 2 gets us up and running earlier than usual tonight, as Villa welcome United to the midlands.

Both sides opened their seasons with 1-0 wins and Tim Sherwood will be seeking home improvements, having managed just one home clean sheet at Villa Park since taking the helm. Captain Poll favourite Wayne Rooney, meanwhile, looks to improve upon a record that saw him score just once outside of Old Trafford in 2014/15.

United roll up to Villa Park for their first away game of the season having struck just 21 goals in their 19 road trips under Louis van Gaal last term, registering a shot on goal every 8 minutes. They’ll be up against a Villa rearguard that kept just four clean sheets in front of their own fans last term, shipping 25 goals – only Crystal Palace kept fewer shutouts than the midlanders.

Having failed to ignite against Spurs, Van Gaal will look to his attacking players to perform tonight, providing a test to Sherwood’s rearguard following their opening day success at Bournemouth.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

      Give him another game. Very wasteful, but he's the perfect FPL player.

      10 years, 12 months ago

      I just did Wally to Sanchez and Tekkers to Sakho with 2 FT. Here is hoping to injuries this weekend for them.

    • 14 Years
    10 years, 12 months ago

    Rooney getting booked would make my night...but he'd have to break into at least a trot to get near the ball and he's showing no sign of that tonight

  23. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 16 Years

  26. skooldaze
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 12 months ago

    This is why I never trust Rooney - lets you down a lot and is just the original inconsistent.

    Will get 10 points one game and then 2 the next.

    Dropped!
