LIVE BLOG: Arsenal vs Aston Villa: Follow All The Action Here
Afternoon one and all and welcome to Sunday’s Premier League early KO at the Emirates. It’s Arsenal vs Aston Villa brought to by the lovely folk at Europcar – Arsenal’s Official Car and Van Rental Partner.
It’s four wins on the bounce now for Arsene Wenger’s men who return to Premier League action for the first time since a particularly impressive away win at champions Manchester City.
Last time out the Gunners put Brighton & Hove Albion to the sword in the FA Cup Fourth Round, with goals-a-piece for returning duo Mesut Ozil and Theo Walcott.
Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Alexis Sanchez miss out today so they join longer-term absentees Mikel Arteta, Jack Wilshere, Mathieu Debuchy and Danny Welbeck on the sidelines. Let’s hope we still have enough to see-off the Villains this afternoon.
