Tyrone Mings took advantage of Manchester United s sloppy defending to score his first Premier League goal as Aston Villa came from behind in a 2-2 draw at Old Trafford.
United had to chase the game after the impressive Jack Grealish opened the scoring 11 minutes into an error-strewn contest that saw the hosts equalise through a Tom Heaton own goal and then go ahead when Victor Lindelof scored for the first time this season.
Any hopes Ole Gunnar Solskjaer had of seeing his side protect the lead were dashed within two minutes as the unmarked Mings volleyed home an equaliser from close range to help Villa claim a share of the points their performance deserved.
The result leaves United with one win from their last four domestic outings and, with Tottenham arriving…
Verdict: Home win

According to a recent report from Calciomercato, Tottenham Hotspur are believed to be the frontrunners in the race to try and sign Hakim Ziyech from Dutch giants Ajax during next summer’s transfer window. The expectation is that Tottenham will lose Christian Eriksen either next summer or even during the upcoming January transfer window, with Ziyech being viewed as the ideal replacement for the Danish sensation.
Lorenzo Pellegrini has also been floated around as a suggestion, but beyond that, it certainly feels like there are plenty of options out there for Spurs. When it comes to Ziyech there is said to be a great deal of competition that the North London outfit will face, with AC Milan, Roma and Napoli all attempting to bring him over to Serie A.

RB Salzburg will welcome Liverpool to their Red Bull Arena, also known as the EM-Stadion Wals-Siezenheim, on Tuesday evening in the final round of the Champions League Group E. Nothing is quite settled yet in this group, also containing Italian side Napoli and Genk from Belgium, and this clash between the two teams undefeated in their own respective leagues, will have much bearing on the final ranking.
Their first clash, played at Anfield in the second round, was a very exciting matter as Salzburg came back from 3-0 down to equalize, before a 69th-minute strike from Mohamed Salah, his second on the evening, saw the Premier League leaders ensure the points stayed in England.

A visa row initially prevented Abramovich from attending Chelsea games this term, and although he is reported to have got around that issue by getting Israeli citizenship, he has not been at Stamford Bridge all season.
This has given way to claims – which his as…
