Arsenal vs Villarreal Prediction

After a disappointing season, Mikael Arteta’s side will be looking to throw everything at Villarreal to overturn the one goal deficit from the first leg. However, Arsenal are never defensively sound and we expect goals at both ends with the home side eventually coming out on top.
