Arsenal Predicted XI: We predict Mikel Arteta’s starting XI as his side host Aston Villa tonight in the Premier League

Arsenal Predicted XI: We predict Mikel Arteta’s starting XI as his side host Aston Villa tonight in the Premier League.

Following the disappointing 1-0 loss suffered at home to Leicester City, the Gunners are enjoying a good run of form having won their last three matches.

Arsenal fans will be keen not to get too far ahead of themselves, given two of those three victories were in the Europa League, but the win at Old Trafford was a big boost for the North London side.

Arteta’s outfit are firm favourites going into tonight’s clash with Aston Villa, with the Birmingham side starting to falter after their superb start to the campaign.

With games coming thick and fast for side’s in Europe, Arteta will have lots of decisions to make in terms of who’s starting at the Emirates tonight.

So which players will he task with getting Arsenal a positive result against Dean Smith’s team?

Here we predict the Spaniard’s starting XI…

Goalkeeper:

Bernd Leno is Arsenal’s undisputed number 1 and will start the match tonight. The German will be looking to secure his first league clean sheet of the season since the opening day 3-0 win at Fulham.
