Arsenal team is playing to win this season. Arsenal have tried to strengthen their squad. And Arsenal will try their best to grab the top spot in the table. Arsenal won the first match against Wolves 2-0. But I think we may not see many goals in today's match. Both teams will play very carefully today.
Your guess is probably going to be right. We didn't see any goals in the first half. Even after 60 minutes neither team could score. Both teams are trying to keep their defenses tight.
Arsenal had 69% of the ball possession in the first half. But the Arsenal players managed to make only 4 shots. Neither team tries to attack too much. But I thought Arsenal would play more aggressively in the second half. But even in the second half, Arsenal has not been able to make any strong attacks so far. If Arsenal want to win, they must increase their attacking speed. Otherwise the match will be a goalless draw. But I would say we didn't see the expected performance from Arsenal in today's match. Arsenal should play better.
It is quite exciting to see that Arsenal did not only win Aston Villa in their home but also dominated the match. This is a match many people were taunting Villa to win like they did in the return leg of last season that made Arsenal lose the trophy. I think it is now balanced that the Gunners were able to finish them in their home.
Arsenal is know for having good records a the beginning of the season but sustaining it is their major problem. I just hope we will see something different this season because they need to win a title desperately.
