Arsenal needed a late Alexander Lacazette goal on Monday night to rescue a 2-2 draw with Crystal Palace despite having taken the lead in the third minute through Aubameyang. The result means it is back-to-back draws for the Gunners although it also means they are unbeaten in five. At the Emirates, they have played four times these season, winning two, drawing one and losing the other.
Aston Villa looked to be coasting to all three points as Danny Ings and John McGinn put them two up with ten minutes to play, but they conceded three times in the last ten minutes to lose 3-2 to Wolves. It was a second successive league defeat for Villa who sit in 13th place one point and one position behind their opponents here. On the road, the Midlands outfit have lost three of four this season including a 2-1 defeat in North London to Tottenham on their last trip.

Arsenal vs Aston Villa: Match Stats
The league table suggests that there is little to choose between these sides so take Aston Villa and the draw double chance at the odds. We saw on Monday night that Arsenal missed Xhaka in the pivot along with Thomas Partey and Villa have as much attacking talent as Palace should be able to exploit the spaces. With Villa coming out on top in both meetings last season they look over-priced here to get something.
Matty Cash has been the one who has benefited most from Villa shifting to three at the back and occupies an advanced attacking position. He goes off at double-figures to score at any time which is great value on a player who had three shots in the previous game.
