Betting preview for Aston Villa vs Arsenal
Arsenal left it late – very late in fact – to clinch the three points at Luton in midweek in a dramatic game.
Mikel Arteta won’t have been pleased to see David Raya chuck two in his own net mind you, so that’ll lead to a dilemma for the Gunners boss who was booked for celebrating Declan Rice’s late goal.
They have a two-point cushion over Liverpool in second heading into the weekend, with chief threats Manchester City a further four points behind them.
That’s because City lost at Aston Villa on Wednesday night and saw Unai Emery’s side jump ABOVE City and into third.
Arsenal fans were sharing images of their former boss following that win – though they might not be as nice this time around.
In truth, Villa should have beaten City by more and this will be a stern test for an Arsenal side who’ve snatched a couple of late wins of late.
Arsenal have won the last FOUR times these sides have met, including in typical late, dramatic fashion here last season.
But this is a different Villa side.

Betting tips for Aston Villa vs Arsenal
Ollie Watkins to score first 5/1 with Ladbrokes – CLAIM HERE
Drew a blank against City in midweek which ended a four-match scoring streak.
A constant threat and will be again, against an Arsenal defence that shipped three just the other night.
Has opened the scoring in two of the last three visits of Arsenal here.
Both teams to score & draw at 16/5 with Paddy Power – CLAIM HERE
Aston Villa have won eight of their last ten games, while Arsenal have won their last six.
So something has to give – though it could be they both keep their undefeated runs going.
Arsenal have snatched three points late on in two of their last four games but Villa have something more about them.
Don’t think either side will be too unhappy with this outcome.
Boubacar Kamara to be carded at 23/10 with Paddy Power – CLAIM HERE
Big central midfielder will want to dominate against the Arsenal midfield three who are all comfortable on the ball.
Booked in two of his last three Villa outings – including midweek – and can make it a quickfire hat trick at good odds.
