The New Year’s Eve fireworks will come early for us in 2025 as we wrap up the year with a blockbuster match against red-hot Aston Villa on Tuesday (8.15pm UK).
24 days after the Villans bagged a 95th-minute winner to beat us in Birmingham to end our 18-match unbeaten run, we have the chance to do the same to Unai Emery’s impressive outfit, as the Claret and Blues head to Emirates Stadium on the back of a club record 11 successive wins in all competitions.
Sitting in third spot, Villa are also unbeaten in their last two visits to N5 and could move level on points with us at the summit with a win.
