Arsenal vs Aston Villa Prediction & Betting tips
Arsenal will host Aston Villa in a crucial Premier League clash at the Emirates Stadium on Tuesday, December 30, 2025, with kickoff at 10:15 PM EET (8:15 PM GMT).
Arsenal:
Arsenal currently lead the Premier League table, sitting three points ahead of third-place Aston Villa. The Gunners are in strong home form, with eight wins and one draw in nine home games this season, but have a number of injury concerns in defence. The Gunners are facing an injury crisis in defense, with Jurrien Timber, Riccardo Calafiori, and Ben White all sidelined. Gabriel Magalhães made a return from injury off the bench in their last match and may start against Villa, which would be a significant boost. Arsenal have lost three of their last five games against Aston Villa in the Premier League.
Aston Villa:
Aston Villa are on an impressive 11-match winning streak across all competitions and could draw level on points with Arsenal at the top of the table with a victory. Unai Emery’s side recently beat Arsenal 2-1 in the reverse fixture at Villa Park earlier in December. Villa will be without the suspended duo of Matty Cash and Boubacar Kamara after they both accumulated five yellow cards. Defenders Tyrone Mings and Pau Torres remain out with injuries. Star striker Ollie Watkins is expected to return to the starting lineup after scoring a brace off the bench against Chelsea. Aston Villa manager Unai Emery has a strong record against his former club, losing only twice in 10 meetings against Arsenal across various teams.
