Aston Villa are threatening to disrupt Arsenal's Premier League title bid for a second season running.Unai Emery put one over on his former employers in last year's encounter at the Emirates Stadium

Arsenal were denied a late winner as Aston Villa came from two goals down to earn a 2-2 draw at the Emirates Stadium. Mikel Merino’s strike hit Kai Havertz and beat Emiliano Martinez in the final minutes, but that goal was ruled out by VAR after replays showed the ball had hit the arm of Havertz.

Goals by Youri Tielemans and Ollie Watkins helped Villa recover from a two-goal deficit to secure a thrilling 2-2 draw. Watkins has scored six Premier League goals against Arsenal, including four at the Emirates. He is undoubtedly a thorn in their side.
