Arsenal come up against visiting side Aston Villa in a Premier League fixture this coming Wednesday at Emirates Stadium. Arsenal go into their encounter with fond memories, as they won 3-1 and 1-0 the last two times they played Aston Villa.

A glance at the Premier League table reveals that, the current difference between the teams is nine points and 14 places. Arsenal find themselves as number one in the league table with 12 points from their first four matches this campaign. They are nine points better off than Aston Villa, who rank as number 15.

It is obvious that Aston Villa will seek a victory against the current leaders Arsenal if they want to move up and reduce the gap in the standings.

Arsenal scored 2.3 goals on average in their past ten matches, hitting the target 23 times. They conceded 12 goals, an average of 1.2 and pulled off two clean sheets.

Aston Villa scored 13 goals, conceded 15 and managed one clean sheet in their previous ten matches.

Arsenal vs Aston Villa Prediction

Arsenal swept all aside in their last three matches and started off by winning 4-2 against Leicester. They went on to defeat Bournemouth 0-3 and made it three on the spin against Fulham in a 2-1 victory. Arsenal showed little mercy in their past six matches at Emirates Stadium, of which they won five, drew none and lost once. They hit the target 17 times, while letting in eight themselves.

In their previous three outings, Aston Villa lost 3-1 against Crystal Palace, beat Bolton 1-4 and lost 0-1 against West Ham. Aston Villa managed to win just once in their past six away games in the Premier League. On top of winning once they also drew one as well as losing four, while scoring 11 time and letting in seven.

Aston Villa have their target set on sneaking inside the top six of the Premier League this season, and they have the qualities to at least a finish inside the top third.

Arsenal should be too strong at Emirates Stadium to drop any points against Aston Villa, and combining the home win with over 2.5 goals looks the value bet.
