"Starting with the hosts, mounting a sensational comeback away at Brighton earlier in the week as they eventually stormed their way to an empathic 4-3 victory at the Amex, Aston Villa are riding what has become a real purple patch. Despite opening up the 2025/26 campaign in the midst of a wobble, Unai Emery's men have come roaring back in some style."
"Heading into November's international break with a stellar 4-0 romp at home against Bournemouth, the one-time Arsenal boss has seen his high-flying squad win all of their previous six consecutive appearances across all competitions by an aggregate 15-5. Skyrocketing their way up the standings and suddenly opening this weekend's fixtures sat in bronze medal position, Aston Villa will be looking to collect a famous domestic scalp on Saturday lunchtime."
Arsenal will travel to the Midlands to face Aston Villa on Saturday lunchtime as they look to extend their buffer at the top of the Premier League table. Aston Villa have won six consecutive matches across all competitions, scoring 15 and conceding five, including a 4-3 comeback at Brighton and a 4-0 win over Bournemouth. Unai Emery's side have risen to third place and aim for another high-profile domestic win. Tyrone Mings remains sidelined with a knee injury, while Ollie Watkins will lead the attack and Youri Tielemans could be recalled. Betting markets suggest both teams will score in both halves, with best odds 10/11 at Olympusbet.
