Recent form

Head-to-head
Villa vs Arsenal is one of the great modern Premier League fixtures. Villa's 1-0 win at the Emirates in 2023 was a decisive moment in that season's title race, and their home form against Arsenal in recent seasons has been outstanding. Historically Arsenal hold the overall edge, but recent meetings have been remarkably even.
