Edge of the Box, in association with UltimateFan, returns as Dan Bardell, Ali Maxwell and Sam Tighe preview the weekend's Premier League action.

First up is Manchester United's trip to Aston Villa as Erik ten Hag's side look to build upon their 3-0 win over West Ham. United's young trio - Rasmus Hojlund, Alejandro Garnacho and Kobbie Mainoo - all excelled in that victory, with the panel wondering whether it's too soon for an England call up for Mainoo.

Villa will seek to bounce back from their disappointing FA Cup defeat to Chelsea in midweek and re-establish Villa Park as a fortress having lost back-to-back games.

The Blues' trip to Crystal Palace is also in focus. Chelsea have lost back-to-back league matches, conceding eight times in the process, but looked much-improved at Villa in midweek. A foundation for Mauricio Pochettino to build upon?

Victory may have eased the pressure on Pochettino but one man under the cosh is Eagles boss Roy Hodgson. Should he be sacked sooner rather than later? Who would take over at Selhurst Park for the final weeks of the season?

All that and more is discussed on this week's episode of Edge of the Box!
