Arsenal look to make it two home wins in a row when Aston Villa and former manager, Unai Emery, come to town.

Two managers under mounting pressure go head-to-head in a north London derby with even higher stakes than normal, as Arsenal host Tottenham in this big clash in the English Premier League.  Gunners boss Mikel Arteta is feeling the heat,

Losing to Aston Villa twice played a major role in Arsenal falling short in last season's Premier League title race, and manager Mikel Arteta does not want to take Unai Emery's side for granted despite a win at Villa Park in August.

Mikel Arteta said on Friday the Premier League title race cannot be boiled down to a straight shootout between Arsenal and Liverpool as he urged his players to relish the battle."I don't think so," Gunners manager Arteta said when asked if Liverpool and Arsenal were in a straight fight for the title.

Arsenal's Mikel Arteta hailed his side's 2-1 comeback win against north London rivals Tottenham Hotspur on Wednesday as proof his side remains firmly in the Premier League title race, although he rued their failure to kill the game off despite ample opportunity.

Have we already witnessed the peak years of Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal reign? It feels like this Emirates era is heading towards a crossroads, with Arsenal in the middle of a high-stakes game. This will either be one of the greatest seasons in the club’s history - ending a 21-year wait for the Premier League title - or a campaign which ends amid a highly-charged post-season review as to how they squandered their best chance to become champions in two decades.
