I reckon if we are EVER going to beat Man Utd then it might be now, especially considering you are lacking experience at the back at the moment.
Also, in the two games since Downing has come into the team we have moved Milner into centre midfield to accomodate him (with Downing and Young constantly swapping wings) and have scored 7 goals. We look better than ever going forward now we can play Young, Milner, Downing, Carew, AND Agbonlahor together.
I'm hopefull, but we have not been good on the road so far this season and i think if Rooney has a good game and if Berbatov pulls his weight then we will get punished.
I'm expecting a few goals. I'd like us to win, but realistically im predicting 3-2 to Man Utd.
It's a tough one to call. Vidic may be back by then which would at least be something. He seems to play really well when Rio's not in the side, almost as if he puts in extra effort because of his absence.

If we get a few of our injured players back in time, I think we'll nick it 2-1. United just seem to have a habit of winning in the face of adversity (which is a nice habit to have) so I think they'll pull a home win out of the bag at the weekend. I do think that Villa will open the scoring though - we always seem to play better after going behind.

However, Villa are looking a much stronger outfit so an upset isn't inconceivable.
