Harrison Reed and Aleksandar Mitrovic scored on either side of a Douglas Luiz red card as Fulham heaped misery on struggling Aston Villa at Craven Cottage.

Cristiano Ronaldo won’t be appearing for United after his actions in midweek, while Harry Maguire and Anthony Martial are working their way back to fitness. Wesley Fofana, Reece James and N’Golo Kante remain long-term injury absentees for Chelsea, while Conor Gallagher came off in the first half of their midweek draw at Brentford due to illness. Kepa Arrizabalaga has kept five clean sheets in a row in all competitions and made some superb saves against Villa and Brentford as he’s keeping Edouard Mendy out of the team.

Villa’s won the expected goals battle in four-straight matches including a loss to Chelsea last time out, but that’s only bagged Gerrard’s men five of nine points. Wide service has been a specialty for the Cottagers, with Neeskens Kebano, Kevin Mbabu, Kenny Tete, and Antonee Robinson all feeding the big Serbian forward. Silva’s Cottagers looking solid: Whether out-producing early-season performances or delivering points off superior displays, Fulham looks a lot better than it did at almost any point in its last Premier League season.

The former Liverpool captain departed after Villa's sixth defeat in 11 league games this season, with Mauricio Pochettino a potential replacement.

“I have been around the game a long time and I certainly understand the situation.” Villa ran out of steam last season, finishing 14th, and have made a poor start to this campaign. The 42-year-old has been in the job for less than a year and has been unable to make a success of his first management role in English football. It remains to be seen if the former Tottenham manager, who is out of work after being sacked by Paris Saint-Germain at the end of last season, would be willing to enter a relegation battle. “We would like to thank Steven for his hard work and commitment and wish him well for the future,” a Villa spokesman said.

Every single match is a great challenge ahead of us, and it has to make us stronger and I'm sure that's what will happen with Steven. It's really important for us, and it's the perfect night. "I spoke to [Steven Gerrard] after the game, as we do usually after the game. I have been around the game a long time, I understand the situation and won't sugar coat the situation or give anyone false lines. I understand the fans' frustration and it was so far from how we looked at the weekend. "The performance was miles away from what I want, expect and stand for. "Clearly it was not a question Christian Purslow or the Villa board could answer either.
