Arsenal – Aston Villa: a revenge for a harsh defeat and a fight for first place.

Motivation for Arsenal

According to The Sun: Mikel Arteta urged his Arsenal players to use the 'harsh' defeat to Aston Villa earlier this month as motivation for the upcoming title clash. The 'Gunners' lost 2-1 at Villa Park, with Emi Buendia scoring virtually at the last opportunity of the game.

Rematch

On Tuesday, the teams will meet again at Emirates, and Arteta hopes this defeat will push his players to perform better.

The meeting at Emirates promises to be tense, as both teams aim to improve their position in the league table. Arsenal still has a chance for the title, so it is important for the players to take lessons from the previous game to show their best level of play.
