Arsenal 3 (Fabregas 65, 81, Diaby 90+1) – Aston Villa 0
For the second successive season, Arsenal will face Aston Villa during the Christmas holiday period. This time, though, the venue will be the Gunners’ Emirates stadium and today’s hosts will be looking to stop Martin O’Neill’s side from replicating their exploits in North London last year by toppling the high-flying Villans.
Arsenal 3 (Denilson 45+4, Eduardo 59, Diaby 80) – Hull City 0
