Aston Villa vs. Arsenal: Prediction, date, venue, and how to watch Premier League match
Watch Premier League live with Fubo Sports on DAZN
Two teams who had very different experiences in their opening matches meet on Monday to close Matchday 2 of the Premier League as Aston Villa prepare to host Arsenal at Villa Park.
Villa were on the wrong end of the most lopsided scoreline of the opening weekend of the 2026-27 campaign, falling 4-0 at Brighton & Hove Albion. The Seagulls ran rampant over their visitors, even drawing a red card that will see Villa midfielder João Gomes miss Monday's match.
On the other side of the pitch on Monday will be Arsenal, who eased into the new campaign with a comfortable 3-0 victory at home over Premier League new boys Coventry.
The Gunners remain the team to beat in England's top flight, having reloaded over the summer with some key signings, and they can lay down another marker with a victory here.

Aston Villa vs. Arsenal prediction
Villa aren't as poor as they showed against Brighton last week, but it's clear that they have not settled after a summer that saw a lot of turnover in their squad.
Unai Emery's side will likely find their way, but this match against the defending champions may come too soon for that.
Prediction: Aston Villa 1-2 Arsenal
