The Villans have struggled to score this season as their 11 goals are tied for the third lowest in the Premier League. Also, their goal differential of -9 is tied for fourth-worst in the league.
Although Manchester United haven’t been scoring as much as a top 5 team would, the defensive unit has allowed them to only need one goal to win games.
