Attention turns to a very tricky fixture away to Villa on Saturday lunchtime. Join Holly and Stef as we try to work out who may be available and who Arteta should start with. Pace off the bench or pace from the start? Is Merino undroppable? Our predicted score lines reflect the nerves ahead of the game, with two of us predicting a draw and one of us a nervy one goal victory. But, at this stage of the season, any win will do! There's also a quick look back at Brentford and finally, can you name the 8 players to have represented both Arsenal and Villa in the premier league era?
