Aston Villa 2-4 Arsenal: Gunners secured three points after stunning come back to move back to top of EPL table

The Premier League match between Arsenal and Villa ended in a 4-2 victory for the Gunners, who are now back on top.

Watkins gave the home team the lead after just five minutes, but Saka quickly pulled one back with a beautiful half-volley.

During the opening period, Coutinho gave Villa the advantage again. After the break, Arsenal played a different brand of football and hit the crossbar with Nketiah before Zinchenko drilled in the equalizer.

Jorginho's attempt in stoppage time hit the crossbar and then Martinez's head, bouncing over the line.

Gabriel Martinelli scored the game's final goal, and Mikel Arteta added the fourth by putting the ball into the empty net after a quick counterattack.

With three points more than Manchester City, who will soon begin play, that victory puts Arsenal back atop the league. They end a four-match losing streak.

Next up for them is a trip to Leicester City. Villa has now dropped their last three games and will travel to relegation-threatened Everton the following weekend.
