Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals

We are anticipating a relatively tight affair here and, as such, are predicting under 2.5 goals. For those unfamiliar with that term, this simply means that 2 goals or fewer will be scored in total as A Villa and Arsenal go head-to-head. Tight defences and clear heads will be required to deliver us a winner, but we have reason to trust both sides to deliver just that. The stats and the odds below suggest it's a sound bet too.

Goal Statistics

Arsenal's defensive record is very strong, M. Arteta's men having conceded 1 or less in 5 consecutive English Premier League matches. An underwhelming PG rating of 1.1 for Aston Villa makes sense in this context.
