Aston Villa-Arsenal is a match of the second day of the Premier League and is played on Saturday at 6:30 pm: live TV, probable formations, prediction.
Arsenal, as indeed did the other title pretenders, did not miss their debut, beating Wolverhampton with a comfortable 2-0 at the Emirates Stadium. One goal per half for the Gunners, led by strikers Havertz and Saka, two staples of Mikel Arteta’s team already last season. The Londonershave thus started off on the right foot in a league that should see them again rival Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City, multiple reigning champions who also finished ahead of everyone last year.
To stay on full points Arteta now has to dispel the Emery taboo: the former Arsenal coach, now on the bench of Aston Villa, in the Premier League ’23-’24 was the only one to beat the Gunners in both the first leg and the return leg (1-0 at Villa Park and 0-2 at Emirates Stadium), even managing not to concede a goal. No small feat considering that the north London club has only cashed in five defeats. The Basque coach will once again try to make himself indigestible to his compatriot and give continuity to the fine success achieved on the debut against West Ham, folded 2-1 at the London Stadium. Ironically, the decisive goal was scored by Colombian striker Duran, who until a few weeks ago seemed destined to wear precisely the Hammers’ jersey. The victory won in the English capital allowed Emery and his men to build confidence ahead of a season that will also see the Villans engaged in the Champions League.

The Prediction
Transfer that hides quite a few pitfalls for Arteta’s Arsenal, which was unable to find countermeasures to the Villans last year. We stay out of the final result, assuming a prolific contest, since Aston Villa has scored at least two goals in the last eight games played in front of their home crowd.
