• Aston Villa have not lost in their last two visits to the Emirates.
• Seven of their last 10 encounters produced at least two goals.

Form:

• Arsenal in the league: W-L-W-W-W
• Arsenal in all competitions: W-W-W-W-W
• Aston Villa in the league: W-W-W-W-W
• Aston Villa in all competitions: W-W-W-W-W

Team News:

• Arsenal are going to be without the services of Ben White, Kai Havertz, Cristhian Mosquera and Max Dowman. Calafiori got injured during the last match’s warm-up and might miss out on this match.
• Tyrone Mings, Pau Torres, Harvey Elliott and Ross Barkley are not going to be in action for Aston Villa. They are not match fit. Evann Gussand is on international duty.

Player(s) to watch:

• Viktor Gyokeres is still going to play a crucial role in the final third for the hosts, even though the Swedish international has not been very beneficial for the Gunners. In 15 Premier League appearances this season, Viktor Gyokeres has scored five goals and will be looking to add more to his tally.
• Ollie Watkins is back on the scoresheet for Aston Villa. He is coming in after scoring a sensational second-half brace, which helped his side make a comeback against Chelsea. Ollie Watkins will be ready to help his side in the attacking front once again and is surely going to trouble the opponent’s defence.
