Aston Villa vs Arsenal prediction, odds

Arsenal cannot afford another slip up, as they look to keep pace with City in the run in, but they are without a Premier League win in their last three games.

However, they take on a Villa side coming off the back of successive Premier League losses, and with one clean sheet in their last five league outings.
