Aston Villa vs Arsenal Predictions: 06.12.2025 - Premier League Betting Tips

Aston Villa vs Arsenal

Saturday's lunchtime kick-off is a cracker as Unai Emery's in-form Aston Villa takes on league leaders Arsenal at Villa Park. The hosts are on a six match winning streak while the visitors have pulled five points clear at the top of the tree.

Our very own Premier League expert Nathan Joyes provides us with his best bet for this mouthwatering clash.

Villa looking dangerous

After falling 2-0 behind against Brighton on Wednesday, Aston Villa's five match winning streak looked set to come to an abrupt end.

Yet the magic of Ollie Watkins combined with goals from Amadou Onana and Donyell Malen stunned the Seagulls to complete the comeback.

As a result, Villa are now sat in 3rd, just six points behind their next opponents. At home, they have won their last eight across all competitions, keeping four clean sheets in the process.

Wins against Man City (1-0) and Bournemouth (4-0) have been their standout performances - and results - in front of the supporters - who will be in a confident mood when Arsenal head to Birmingham.

A home win would certainly put Villa into contention for the title.

Arsenal will be tested

Hoping to make sure that doesn't happen is Mikel Arteta, who will be looking to extend the club's 18-match unbeaten run.

Their 1-1 draw at Stamford Bridge was backed up with a professional 2-0 win against Brentford midweek to stretch their lead at the top of the Premier League. The only negative on the night was the loss of Cristhian Mosquera who was substituted in the first half.

With both Gabriel and William Saliba also out injured, this is going to be Arteta's first real test to see how he can conjure up another clean sheet with a weakened back line.

Still, Arsenal have only suffered one away defeat this season, and at the other end of the pitch they have so much quality to hurt any team in the Premier League.

Aston Villa vs Arsenal H2H

Last season Villa fought back from a 2-0 deficit to draw 2-2 at the Emirates, but did lose their home match 2-0. However, Aston Villa have won two of the last five meetings, and no doubt Emery's side will give Arsenal something to think about on Saturday afternoon.

Our Aston Villa vs Arsenal betting tip

The Premier League's two in form sides lock horns on Saturday in front of the TNT Sports cameras, but can the hosts put an end to Arsenal's 18 match unbeaten run?

Nathan Joyes has glanced at the Premier League betting for this match and provides his hot take for the match.

Villa capable of shock win

Aston Villa (10/3 with Betfred) are, of course, the outsiders to win this match but it would be foolish to rule them out. Currently on a six match winning run, and that goes up to eight when looking at their home form, Unai Emery has his team playing some of the best football in the league right now.

Whoever has come to Villa Park has struggled - just ask Bournemouth and Man City. The hosts certainly won't make it easy for the league leaders.

And Arsenal Ham's (4/5) with Betano) arrive with several key defenders out injured. The fact Mosquera looks as though he will miss the trip makes this extremely interesting - and Villa won't have a better opportunity to end Arsenal's unbeaten run.

The visitors won't win every match this season - and this looks like one of those. Back Villa not to lose with the double chance market.
