The Gunners are on a four-match winning run and they will be aiming for another victory to return to the top of the table.

Predicted Line-up:

David Raya made two high-profile errors in the recent win over Luton but manager Mikel Arteta was supportive of him after the game. The Spaniard is expected to continue in goal.

In front of him, there could be a solitary change to the backline. Ben White , William Saliba and Gabriel Magalhaes are expected to start but Jakub Kiwior should make way for Oleksandr Zinchenko .

Zinchenko's creativity and overlapping runs will be crucial to unlocking Villa's backline. The midfield should stay the same with Declan Rice and Kai Havertz both starting once more.

Rice has been an incredible piece of business for the Gunners and he scored a dramatic late winner at Luton Town. Havertz has also found form lately with three goals in his last four games.

In the final third, Bukayo Saka , Martin Odegaard and Gabriel Martinelli are set to form the attack behind Gabriel Jesus , who was involved in three goals at Kenilworth Road in midweek.

Predicted Arsenal line-up (4-2-3-1): Raya; White, Saliba, Magalhaes, Zinchenko; Rice, Havertz; Saka, Odegaard, Martinelli; Jesus.
