The Arsenal Gunners and Aston Villa are playing live on the Barclays English Premier League schedule on Sunday and the match from Emirates Stadium is on the NBC Sports Network and streaming from the NBCSN Live Extra website online as Arsene Wenger leads his side on the EPL calendar this weekend.

Arsenal may be without Alexis Sanchez, as he is dealing with a hamstring injury and Wenger may not want to risk him. Sanchez has been one of the best players in the EPL this year and he is leading the team in scoring. Arsenal comes in as the favorites, but Aston Villa has played well at the Emirates in recent years and that could trip up the team. Chelsea and Man City played to a draw on Saturday and now Arsenal will try and pick up some points, as they are sixth on the league table.

Arsenal has played very well at home since the loss last year on opening day and they have not lost since then and now they come in after pulling it out in the FA Cup against Brighton. Arsenal has a great record against Aston Villa and they have only lost three times in the last 32 matchups and this should be another chance for the team to get a win. Danny Welbeck has played well in his last few starts against Aston Villa and Olivier Giroud has played well, scoring four goals in the past five games.

The Gunners have only lost once in the last 28 matches at home and that was against Aston Villa and the team has taken 16 points over the last 5-1-1 stretch out of 21 points. The team has put themselves in position to move up on the table and they could get to Champions League qualifying again. The team finished fourth last year and now they will try and get into that position again.
