Villa did win the corresponding fixture 2-1 last December, one of the few blemishes on Arsenal’s title season. Arsenal answered emphatically with a 4-1 at the Emirates a few weeks later, and the two sides meet again with the gap between them wider than it’s been for years.

This is as strong as an away favourite gets in an early-season fixture. Arsenal opened their title defence with a controlled 3-0, goals from Kai Havertz, Bukayo Saka and Martin Odegaard, and new signing Christos Tzolis had a hand in the first two on an eye-catching debut. Bruno Guimaraes could also return from a groin problem in time for this one.

Villa, meanwhile, are a club in flux. Ezri Konsa, Youri Tielemans and Morgan Rogers were all sold this summer, and Konsa could now line up against his old club in Arsenal red. Watkins was left out at Brighton amid interest from Al Hilal, and Unai Emery has admitted both he and Martinez could leave before the window shuts. Add a 4-0 defeat, a threadbare squad and a toxic transfer backdrop, and 1.55 on the champions looks fair rather than skinny.

Villa’s attacking options are down to the bare bones. New striker Brian Madjo is still around two weeks from fitness, Tammy Abraham’s return date is unclear, and at Brighton Emery had to use Emiliano Buendia as an emergency number nine. The result: zero goals, and barely a threat all afternoon.

Joao Gomes, the £38m midfield signing, is suspended after his straight red on debut, which robs Villa of legs in midfield too. Arsenal kept a comfortable clean sheet against Coventry, and while William Saliba and Jurrien Timber remain sidelined, a patched-up Villa front line is exactly the opponent you want while your defence rebuilds rhythm. At 1.95 this is the value play of the night.

Three of the last five meetings between these sides cleared this line, and both league games last season produced three-plus goals. Arsenal scored three in week one without breaking sweat, and they now face a defence that shipped four at Brighton and lost its best centre-back to, well, Arsenal.

Paired with the BTTS angle above, this points at one scenario: Arsenal scoring three or more themselves. That’s a real possibility against this Villa side, but it does ask a lot of one team, so keep the stake measured.

Villa Park under the lights is usually worth a caveat, and Villa did win this fixture last season. But that was a different squad, with Rogers running games and Watkins leading the line. This version is depleted, distracted and suspended in key areas, against a champion side that started like it means to go again. Arsenal to win at 1.55 is the banker, BTTS No at 1.95 the value, and Over 2.5 at 1.80 the add-on if you fancy the Gunners to fill their boots.

Aston Villa host Arsenal after a rough opening weekend, with Villa dealing with a heavy defeat, suspensions, injuries and transfer uncertainty. Arsenal arrive as champions in better form after a comfortable win, so bettors may want to compare odds and Premier League markets at the parhaat vedonvälittäjät before placing any bets.

Our prediction: Aston Villa 0-3 Arsenal. The champions make a statement on Monday night.
