The proposition of a trip to Villa Park is always a nervy one for Arsenal, but even more so this time around considering the diminished defence they would visit with. Missing Gabriel, William Saliba and Christian Mosquera, Arsenal fell to a late defeat at the hands of substitute Emi Buendia.
Regardless of Aston Villa's impressive side and remarkable form, every game Arsenal lose is damaging to their title hopes - particularly with Pep Guardiola's Manchester City picking up in recent weeks. The Gunners are 4/6 to win the Premier League.
A bad day for Arsenal, but a brilliant one for Villa. They've won seven games on the spin, with five of those in the Premier League. They're just three points behind the leaders, and as such are 25/1 to win the title.
Rayan Cherki brought out all the tricks in Manchester City's impressive win over Sunderland. His rabona cross found the head of Phil Foden to secure their side's third goal and all three points at the Etihad.
Arsenal's late defeat at Villa Park made the Cityzens' victory even more important, moving them just two points behind the leaders. City are now 7/4 to win the Premier League.
Below, we have collected the top teams and their respective odds to finish top four in the 2025/26 Premier League season, excluding the title contenders.

Liverpool gave up the lead twice against Leeds United this weekend, with Ao Tanaka's 96th-minute equaliser costing Arne Slot's side two points. They've now won just one of their last five Premier League games.
Still, they're 2/3 to make the top four, with many expecting them to turn their season around and salvage a Champions League place. Though given Mo Salah's recent comments, it feels as though Arne Slot has lost the dressing room.
Chelsea look like a shadow of their former selves without midfielder Moises Caicedo. They're now winless in their last three Premier League games and have been poor since the Ecuadorian was sent off against Arsenal.
Their stalemate with Bournemouth sees their odds at 5/6 for them to make the top four this season. Emery's Men Make it Five Straight League Wins
Aston Villa continued their excellent run in the Premier League this weekend, after Emi Buendia came off the bench to secure a late win for his side. They're now 7/4 to make the top four, but could have even loftier ambitions.
Below, we have collected the top teams and their respective odds to be relegated in the 2025/26 Premier League season.
Wolves lost again. There isn't too much left to say on them, really. They did put up a fight for a short while when Haitian international Jean-Ricner Bellegarde levelled proceedings on the stroke of half-time, but Manchester United soon cruised to a 4-1 victory at Molyneux. Wolves are 1/50 to make the drop.
Burnley lost again - as you might've expected. Lucas Pires' straight red card when the Clarets were already down certainly didn't help their case. They're now 1/9 to be relegated.
West Ham thought they'd earned a big win away at the Amex after Jarrod Bowen's sliding finish. It wasn't to be, however, as Georginio Rutter levelled the score in stoppage time. They're 11/10 to make the drop to the Championship.
Below, we have collected the top contenders and their respective odds to be the next manager sacked in the 2025/26 Premier League season.

|---|---|---|---|
| Arne Slot | 1/1 | Place Bet |
| Daniel Farke | 4/1 | Place Bet |
Ao Tanaka's stoppage-time equaliser for Leeds in their clash with Liverpool was the latest of Arne Slot's frustrations as Reds boss. Mo Salah's post-match comments will not have done the Dutchman any favours in keeping his job, either. He's 1/1 to be the next PL manager sacked.
Daniel Farke has really turned it around for Leeds in the last few weeks. Winning four points from two games against Chelsea and Leeds, and the never-say-die attitude his players showed, particularly in their draw versus Liverpool, will have given him breathing room from the axe. He's 4/1 to be the next PL manager to leave post.
Erling Haaland didn't add to his tally in Manchester City's 3-0 win over Sunderland, though he did come close. His tally remains at 15 for the season, and he's 1/8 to win the Golden Boot.
Igor Thiago also went another game without a goal but remains the closest contender to the Manchester City forward. He's 12/1 to lift the Golden Boot come the end of the season.
