"To speak about the title does not make sense for us. Now, in December, it does not make sense. We are motivated and excited, but for the moment, we are motivated for the match. With three points difference between them and us, this is our motivation. With how we are performing, we can feel proud of everything we are building."

Aston Villa sit three points behind Arsenal at the top of the Premier League and have equalled a club record with 11 consecutive wins in all competitions. Villa beat Chelsea 2-1 and remain unbeaten in their last two away league meetings with Arsenal, including a 2-0 win in April 2024 and a 2-2 draw in January. Manager Unai Emery calls title talk premature in December and focuses on the upcoming match against the league leaders. Villa have recovered 54 points from losing positions over the last three seasons, while Opta gives them a 7.5% title probability.
