Aston Villa have been a bit goal-shy of late but if they are going to score against the Gunners, you can be sure Andreas Weimann will be involved. The forward has hit the net three times in the Premier League this season, with another goal coming in the FA Cup victory at Bournemouth on Sunday, and will be looking to improve Villa’s tally of just 11 goals this season.
