Arsenal vs Aston Villa: UK kick-off time, live stream info and more

Arsenal will be looking to make it five wins from five in the Premier League this season as they welcome Aston Villa to the Emirates on Wednesday evening.

The Gunners came from behind after Aleksander Mitrovic gave Fulham a shock lead following a mistake from Gabriel. But the Brazilian atoned for his error, scoring the winner six minutes from time after Martin Odegaard equalised to net his third goal of the season.

But for their opponents, the pressure continues to mount on manager Steven Gerrard, who saw his side lose to a winless West Ham at Villa Park, leaving them 16th in the table.
