Arsenal vs Aston Villa: Betting Preview

Arsenal vs Aston Villa Match Preview

Arsenal faces Aston Villa in a tough matchup in between their UEFA Champions League quarterfinal tie against Bayer Munich. The Gunners will look to maintain the top of the league and keep crossing out games on the way to the title.

Arsenal will enter the pitch knowing the results of Manchester City and Liverpool. Some like this, while others do not. Either way, to beat these two proven teams in a title fight, they must have to be able to handle this situation well, something which Arsenal has so far this season. On Sunday they face a tough Aston Villa, needing to put the Bayern game aside if they want to keep their lead.

The Villans travel to London after their 2-1 win over Lille in their UEFA Europa Conference League quarterfinal first leg. With a different goal but in a similar situation, they are level on 60 points with Tottenham in the battle for the last place of the top four. Having played one more game than their direct rivals, they have to score points to not lose track.

While fifth spot could be enough for Champions League football next season, Villa will not want to rely on their European results – alongside the other Premier League clubs remaining in Europe – to get them into the UCL.

Arsenal vs Aston Villa Prediction

Arsenal win at 1.28

The reverse fixture saw a 1-0 win for Villa with John McGinn scoring an early goal, combined with a great performance from Emiliano Martinez against his former club to hang on to the lead. Arsenal played a good game and probably deserved more, but got nothing from the visit to Villa Park.

This time around, Arsenal will come out on top and maintain their unbeaten Premier League run in 2024. Arsenal will take all three points and a morale boost to Munich, while Aston Villa will have no reward and a tired set of legs on the way to Lille. 

Arsenal vs Aston Villa Tips

Both teams to score at 1.80

Arsenal’s faultless Premier League run in 2024 that got them back in the title fight is mainly due to an incredible increase in goals scored. A key man in this change was Kai Havertz who has 5 goals and 4 assists in his last 7 league appearances.

The Villans have been a force to reckon away from home and managed to score in their last five Premier League visits. Expect both teams to go for the win in their style of play.
