Arsenal feels like the only challenger to Man City, Arteta has done brilliant work, Odegaard and co are superb players, but Villa is not easy to beat! Below my thoughts:

Last season, Arsenal lost only five matches in the Premier League - and eventually lost the championship to Manchester City by a difficult two points. One of the five defeats occurred at Villa Park, where Aston Villa was 1-0 better in December. Something from that encounter may have stuck in the teeth when thinking about this match as well because Arsenal dominated the game despite their loss (expected goals 0.5–1.5).

In their opening game, Aston Villa managed a rather deserved 2–1 away win against West Ham, winning xG narrowly. The star of the team was Amadou Onana, the midfielder acquired from Everton in the summer. For Villa, who played too attack-oriented at times last season, Onana will very likely be a real find throughout the season as he is the balancing key between the lines.

Arsenal's 2-0 home win over Wolves can be considered a routine performance and a routine result. The team's performance was overall good and balanced, but full power against Wolves was not needed yet - it is needed now.

Villa are missing long-term patients Boubacar Kamara and Tyrone Mings from the game. No actual deductions should be made from these. Arsenal will also enter the game with an almost optimal formation. In defense, the absences of Takehiro Tomiyasu and Kieran Tierney cause a slight deficiency.

The nature of the match is basically a case of higher than average variance. Last season Aston Villa started at home with a really big offensive steam, beating weak teams in their first five matches with a combined goal difference of 19–5. Even after that, Manchester City and Arsenal both fell 1-0 with a more accurate game. In principle, one could guess that this will be a match with a lot more goals, but Onana's arrival in the midfield, the importance of the match, and Arsenal's relatively cautious way of playing away from home, on the other hand, pressure the expected goals down.

1-1 it is, good luck!

阿森纳感觉自己是曼城唯一的挑战者，阿尔特塔做了出色的工作，奥德加德等人都是出色的球员，但维拉并不容易被击败!在我的思想下面:

上个赛季，阿森纳在英超联赛中只输了5场比赛，最终以两分的差距艰难地输给了曼城。五场失利中有一场发生在维拉公园球场，去年12月，阿斯顿维拉以1比0领先。当我们想到这场比赛的时候，那场比赛中的一些东西可能会让我们念念不忘，因为尽管阿森纳输球了(预期进球0.5-1.5)，但他们还是控制了比赛。

在首场比赛中，阿斯顿维拉在客场2-1战胜西汉姆联，以微弱优势取胜。球队的明星是阿马杜·奥纳纳，他是今夏从埃弗顿引进的中场球员。对于维拉来说，上赛季有时打得过于注重进攻，奥纳纳很可能在整个赛季都是一个真正的发现，因为他是平衡线之间的关键。

阿森纳主场2-0战胜狼队的比赛可以被认为是一场常规的比赛和常规的结果。球队的整体表现很好，很平衡，但在对阵狼队的比赛中，我们还不需要全力以赴，现在需要的是全力以赴。

维拉的长期病人卡马拉和明斯缺阵。这些款项不应作实际扣除。阿森纳也将以近乎最佳的阵型进入比赛。在防守方面，富康武宏和蒂尔尼的缺席造成了轻微的不足。

匹配的本质基本上是一种高于平均方差的情况。上个赛季，阿斯顿维拉在主场打出了强大的进攻势头，在前五场比赛中以19-5的总净胜球击败了实力较弱的球队。即使在那之后，曼城和阿森纳都以1比0落后，比赛更加精准。原则上，人们可以猜测这将是一场进球更多的比赛，但另一方面，奥纳纳在中场的到来，比赛的重要性，以及阿森纳相对谨慎的客场比赛方式，都压低了预期的进球。

是1-1，祝你好运!
