Aston Villa have the chance to go top of the Premier League table as Unai Emery's side host Sheffield United on Friday night.

The Villans, who are looking for their 16th consecutive home win, have been the surprise package of the season, with Villa winning a joint-high 12 games so far this campaign, including impressive home victories against Manchester City and Arsenal in the last few weeks.

The West Midlanders, who also topped their Europa Conference League group, can sit at the summit of the Premier League at Christmas if they beat Sheffield United and Liverpool v Arsenal on Saturday finishes as a draw.

While Villa have been transformed under Emery, Sheffield United have struggled this season.

The Blades, who were promoted from the Championship last campaign, are bottom of the league after 17 games, and they're hoping Chris Wilder can perform a miracle at Bramall Lane to keep them in the top flight.
