Aston Villa Preview – Can Villains respond?
Aston Villa’s three-match winning streak was brought to an abrupt end last time out in the Premier League when Steven Gerrard’s side were handed a 2-1 loss away from home at West Ham and although they now return back to Villa Park, they face another tough looking encounter against Arsenal on Saturday lunchtime.
Recent wins against Brighton, Southampton and Leeds United had seemingly guaranteed Villa a top half finish in this season’s top flight but the defeat to West Ham may have thrown this into question; in addition, just three home wins from their last 10 games at Villa Park also suggests this could be a tough encounter for the hosts.
Arsenal Preview – Can Gunners resume winning streak?
Arsenal also experienced defeat for the first time in a few weeks in the Premier League last time out when they suffered a 2-0 loss at home to Liverpool which ended an impressive five-match winning streak which consisted of wins against Wolves (home and away), Brentford, Watford and Leicester City.
The bigger picture has also been encouraging for The Gunners as the visitors have lost just two of their last 12 matches overall while on the road, Arsenal have won their last four games on the trot so they stand a decent chance of getting something out of this trip to the west midlands.
