Arsenal 21/20 to beat Aston Villa in Tuesday’s Premier League matchup

Competition: Premier League

Market: Arsenal win

Odds: 21/20 @ 888sport

Hoping to continue on what has been a stellar run of form over the past week, Arsenal will face off against Aston Villa from behind closed doors on Tuesday night.

Starting with the hosts, left heartbroken in midweek, Aston Villa still find themselves in the midst of a relegation scrap with time ticking away. In their 36 Premier League games this season, they have recorded eight wins, seven draws, and 21 defeats, scoring 39 and conceding 66 in return. Along with opening the midweek fixtures sat in 18th and three points adrift of safety, it should also be noted that Tuesday’s hosts hold the second-worst defensive record in the division. As for their previous run of results, Aston Villa have managed to win just one of their last 13 Premier League contests and have managed to record just a single clean sheet in their last seven top-flight contests. More worrying for the relegation scrappers, they have also lost five of their last seven home matchups across all competitions.

As for the visitors, enjoying what has been a very eye-catching run over the past week, Arsenal will certainly find their confidence at a real high in midweek. In their 36 Premier League matches this season, they have recorded 13 wins, 14 draws and nine defeats, scoring 53 and conceding 45 in return. With a points tally of 53 and ending the weekend fixtures sat down in 10th, the Gunners know that victory in midweek could see them skyrocket as high as seventh. As for their previous run of results, collecting back-to-back stellar victories, Arsenal have won six of their last eight matchups across all competitions and they have also managed to claim the win in four of their last five contests on the road. Given the huge gulf in class between the two sides, we’re backing an away victory in midweek.
