)PreviewDavid Moyes could do with the win to restore some pride. Mike Hewitt/Getty ImagesIn Christian Benteke, Paul Lambert should have one of the most feared front men in the division. The Belgian colossus burst onto the Premier League scene at the start of the 2012/13 season and gave virtually every defence the runaround with 19 goals in 32 Premier League appearances per ESPN. Fast-forward a season, and it could be Emile Heskey we are looking at. Benteke's impact has been nothing like his debut season; only six goals since September (per WhoScored) tells its own story. It's a problem that has spread throughout the side with just 33 team goals scored all season. However, Villa do have pace in the shape of Gabby Agbonlahor on their left side, and he has more than enough about him to trouble Rafael and the covering Ryan Giggs.

Goals and Highlights: Aston Villa 3-1 Manchester United in
United need to be boss of the midfield as this seems to be the area where most games are being lost at present. Without a "Roy Keane"-type player in the central areas, Moyes' side have become too lightweight, Wayne Rooney's energy and commitment notwithstanding. Wayne Rooney continues to impress with his work rate. Julian Finney/Getty ImagesNow that Robin van Persie has been ruled out for the foreseeable future, Rooney will revert to a more forward role tucked in just behind a recalled Danny Welbeck. Youth versus ExperienceRyan Giggs and Michael Carrick can be the key to a Manchester United victory. Alex Livesey/Getty ImagesLambert will likely set his stall out with an attacking 4-3-3 formation, with his quick young midfielder providing able support to the front men.

Fabian Delph, Ashley Westwood and Leandro Bacuna are all under 25 years of age and are typical Lambert signings. All are comfortable in possession, able to break at lightning speed and possess a high degree of technical ability.

Ryan Giggs and Michael Carrick are Premier League royalty. Giggs was plying his trade on this manor before some of his opponents were even born! But far from being the old stager, the Welshman continues to earn his place in the Red Devils' starting XI. Chris Richards of the Daily Mirror noted what manager David Moyes thought that Giggs brought to his side:The Premier League has seen some outstanding players, but because of his age and longevity at one club, Ryan has to stand out as the best.
