The pressure is all on Arsenal against their former manager Unai Emery as they welcome Aston Villa to the Emirates tonight.
The stakes for this game were raised after Liverpool scored two late goals at Brentford to win and extend their lead at the top of the table to 7 points.
Arsenal are still dealing with a selection crisis, William Saliba misses out due to a hamstring strain and Arteta will once again be hoping his players can excel out of position in order to secure three points.
Joining Saka, Calafiori, White, and Jesus on the treatment table in what has been a consistently injury riddled season for the Gunners.
Aston Villa sit in 8th as they continue to struggle to keep up with the extra set of games that comes with European competition.
They will gain confidence from the fact that they won here last season thanks to goals from Ollie Watkins and Leon Bailey, the former starting up front today.
Villa also have a wildcard to play, as new signing Donyell Malen sits on the bench for the first time since his arrival from Borussia Dortmund this month.
