The reverse fixture between these two ended up in a 3-1 win for Arsenal at The Emirates, but it could be a different story away from home.

Jacob Ramsey was the Aston Villa goal scorer, and he has gone from strength to strength this season as one of the most technically gifted and intelligent young players in the Premier League.

Villa new boy Lucas Digne was taken off against West Ham with a muscle issue, and while he has not been ruled out of this contest just yet, it is unlikely that he will be available.

Douglas Luiz and Calum Chambers both left the pitch in the game against West Ham, with Douglas Luiz requiring surgery.
