“They perform very well away from home, win matches, show a great game. At home they have more problems than away, but I have a lot of respect for Man Utd for their history, for the way they are performing with the new coach.
They are getting better this season. They have very good football players and in attack they show a great game. And we are ready, but we respect them and remain humble. We have to be humble, especially now, to try to understand why we are playing at such a high level.
I think Aston Villa only beat Manchester United at home three times in 30 or 31 years. And I think that’s a really abnormal statistic against these teams,” Emery said.
The match between Aston Villa and Manchester United will take place on December 21, at 18:30 Kyiv time.
