Arsenal to win & both teams to score (+210)

The safety of the Emirates will prove critical to Arsenal remaining atop the table, as the Gunners are an impressive 8-1-0 at home to start the season.

Villa will be without Matty Cash and Boubacar Kamara, with both players on five yellow cards. Cash scored the opener while Kamara assisted on the winner in the 2-1 Villa victory earlier in the month.

Arsenal have been leaky while dealing with an injury-depleted defense, allowing worse squads than Villa, such as Brighton and Wolves, to find the back of the net in recent games.

Score prediction: Arsenal 2, Aston Villa 1

Leandro Trossard, Forward, Arsenal (+190) ⭐⭐⭐

Arsenal has been plagued by an inability to find the back of the net in recent games, with only one of its last six goals coming from open play. Four of the remaining five came via opposition own goals. 

Trossard has been Arsenal's most consistent goal-scoring threat and has shown a knack for exceeding expectations. His 4 goals are tied for the team lead in non-PK markers and have come at critical times: a winner against Fulham, an opener against Tottenham in the NLD, and the team's lone goal in the first game against Villa.
