Comments:

League position: 3rd Ashley Westwood was in the original starting team but took ill during pre-match warm up and was replaced by Carlos Sanchez whose place on the bench was taken by Joe Cole. Aston Villa haven't beaten Arsenal at home in 15 attempts since coming from two goals down to win 3-2 on 13 December 1998.

Comments:

League position: 4th Alexis Sanchez picked up an injury in the pre-match warm up. He took a place amongst the substitutes and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain came into the starting line-up. Arsenal’s three goals were scored in a spell timed at three minutes and 15 seconds.
