Arsenal aim to keep their 100 per cent winning start to the season intact when Steven Gerrard's Aston Villa pay a visit to north London.

The Gunners had to come from behind against Fulham last time out to win 2-1 and go top of the table with 12 points from four games.

As for Villa, pressure is already growing on Gerrard's shoulders after they suffered back-to-back defeats against Crystal Palace and West Ham United.

He'll be hoping the likes of Danny Ings and Ollie Watkins have their shooting boots on to cause Arsenal some real problems in front of goal.
