As Aston Villa prepares to host Arsenal at Villa Park on December 6, 2025, the anticipation for this Premier League clash is palpable. Both teams have had strong starts to the season, but Arsenal’s current form and overall performance suggest they hold the advantage in this matchup.
Prediction Section
Arsenal currently sits at the top of the Premier League table, boasting 33 points from 14 matches, with an impressive goal difference of +20. Their form is characterized by a strong run, having won 10 out of 14 matches, with only one loss. They have scored a total of 27 goals while conceding just 7, showcasing a solid attacking front alongside a robust defense.
In contrast, Aston Villa ranks third with 27 points, having won 8 matches and suffered 3 losses. Their goal difference of +6 indicates a more balanced but less explosive attacking performance, with 20 goals scored and 14 conceded. Villa’s recent form is slightly less impressive, with a record of WWWWL, indicating a recent setback after a strong run.
Head-to-head statistics also favor Arsenal. In their last five encounters, Arsenal has consistently performed well against Aston Villa, with Villa managing only one win in the recent matches. Their most recent clash ended in a 2-2 draw back in January 2025, but prior to that, Arsenal secured convincing victories, including a 2-0 win at Villa Park earlier in the season.
Aston Villa will be without key players like Ross Barkley and Tyrone Mings due to injuries, which could significantly impact their chances against a full-strength Arsenal side. Arsenal, however, will also miss Gabriel and Kai Havertz due to injuries, but their squad depth allows them to field a competitive team.
When considering home and away performances, Arsenal has proven to be formidable away from home, with 4 wins out of 7 matches and a strong scoring record of 9 goals in away fixtures. Aston Villa, while solid at home with 5 wins from 7 matches, has shown vulnerability against top-tier teams, especially when missing key players.
Predicted Outcome
Given the current form, head-to-head statistics, and player availability, Arsenal is favored to win this match. The likely outcome is Arsenal to win 2–1 against Aston Villa.
