Best Tip: Arsenal to win

A Premier League win on home turf for Mikel Arteta's Arsenal team win in the win / draw / win market is what we're predicting. Statistics suggest that their form is good coming into the match, and they should be too strong for their visitors. The odds from the bookmakers suggest so too, and when that happens you've know you're not going against the market. A Arsenal win is our recommendation, but we wouldn't expect a whitewash.

Aston Villa know that a tricky match is in store and odds available for them to get the win are drifting, meaning the bookies believe a victory for Unai Emery's side is increasingly unlikely.

Goal Statistics

A PG of 2.3 is fairly strong for Arsenal in their meeting with Aston Villa, as is their run of scoring 1 goal or more in 17 consecutive English Premier League matches.

Arsenal's defensive record is very strong, Mikel Arteta's men having conceded 1 or less in 11 consecutive English Premier League games. An underwhelming PG rating of 1.2 for Aston Villa makes sense in this context.
