Summary: Aston Villa - Manchester United 1:3 (Sport1)

In addition to the London derby between Chelsea and Arsenal as part of the 15th round of the Premier League, four matches are being played in the Premier League today (Sunday), including a particularly intriguing one in which Tottenham will try to deepen Liverpool's crisis.

Even before that, Unai Emery celebrated his return to the Premier League with a 1:3 over Manchester United, while at the same time the hot Newcastle continued to race with a victory in Southampton.

A dream opening.

Aston Villa - Manchester United 1:3

In the previous meeting against Manchester United, Unai Emery celebrated a fourth Europa League win as Villarreal won on penalties in the final.

A year and a half later, the Spaniard shocked United again, this time with a dream result in his first game at Aston Villa.

The start of the game was a dream for Emery and a nightmare for Erik ten Haag.

Leon Bailey sealed a great team performance with a goal as early as the seventh minute, Luca Dean doubled four minutes later with a perfect free kick that left David De Gea no chance.

The guest still managed to shrink just before the break with an own goal by Jacob Ramsey, after Luke Shaw's kick hit his back.

Four minutes into the second half, the same Ramsey atoned for the own goal and punished with the team's third from Birmingham.

Cristiano Ronaldo, who started for the fourth time in a row in all the frames since the suspension and even wore the captain's armband, confronted Tyrone Mings in the box and was not really able to contribute beyond that.

Villa's first win at home against United since the opening round of the 1995/96 season, when even then it ended 1:3, Ten Haah suffers its first loss since the 6:3 in the derby and misses an opportunity to advance to the top 4.

Perfect free kick.

Tottenham - Liverpool (18:30, Sport1)

The Roosters haven't beaten the Merseysiders in a league game since October 2017, but against the pale version of Klopp and his players it's certainly possible.

Liverpool have lost in the last two rounds, while Tottenham recovered themselves from a streak of two league losses with a tough 2:3 over Bournemouth and want to continue the momentum to stay close to Manchester City and Arsenal at the top.

Ibrahima Konata, who returned from injury in the 0:2 against Napoli, received the team shirt for the first time in the Premier League, in which it will be only his second appearance of the season in the local framework.

On the other hand, Harry Kane will have to manage without his regular partner in the attack, Jung Min Son, when the one who will accompany him this time in the front is Ivan Perisic.

Southampton - Newcastle 4:1

The crazy run of the Magpies and the Paraguayan Miguel Almiron continues.

The midfielder scored for the fourth game in a row, in fact scoring his seventh goal in the last seven games, the Black and Whites recorded a sixth win in the last seven rounds and are unbeaten since the visit to Anfield at the end of August and maintained a 7 point gap on the leaders Arsenal with a crushing victory over the Saints, who dropped below the red line After a second loss in a row and a balance of a single win in the nine games.

Miguel Almiron scored first in the 35th minute in a spectacular solo operation, Chris Wood who came off the bench at half-time in place of Calum Wilson doubled the lead in the 59th minute, Joe Willock added the third three minutes later and Bruno Guimaraes joined in the celebration in extra time, after Roman Pro just shrugged (89 ).
