They needed to come from behind against Fulham to maintain that, though; an equalizer from Martin Ødegaard and a later winner from Gabriel secured the Gunners the three points. Steven Gerrard's Aston Villa have lost all but one of their Premier League matches so far - a 2-1 victory over Frank Lampard's struggling Everton. Goals are proving hard to come by, too; the Villains have only netted three times in the league. The record books won't inspire much confidence in the visitors. They lost both times these clubs met last season, meaning Arsenal have won eight of their last 11 matches. That said, Aston Villa have won on four of their 13 visits to the Emirates Stadium, with only Chelsea and Man City boasting a better record. Arsenal midfielder Mohamed Elneny picked up a serious injury against Fulham and is likely to be out for a significant period. For Aston Villa, Diego Carlos remains out, so Ezri Konsa and Tyrone Mings continue at the back. Here's how they line up: Arsenal: Ramsdale, White, Saliba, Gabriel, Tierney, Sambi Lokonga, Xhaka, Saka, Odegaard, Martinelli, Gabriel Jesus. Aston Villa: Martinez, Cash, Konsa, Mings, Digne, Ramsey, Kamara, McGinn, Buendia, Watkins, Bailey. Who will win this one? Find out by watching the Arsenal vs Aston Villa live stream.
