Arsenal’s head coach, Mikel Arteta, is confident that his team’s impressive away form can inspire a positive result against Aston Villa this weekend. The Gunners have been formidable on the road, maintaining an unbeaten record in away matches throughout 2024. This weekend’s fixture at Villa Park marks their first away game of the new Premier League season, and Arteta is optimistic about continuing their strong performance.
Last season, Arsenal faced a setback at Villa Park, but they have since established the best away record in the Premier League over the past two seasons. With 21 clean sheets in away games during this period, the Gunners have proven their defensive resilience and are considered strong contenders for the league title this season.
Arteta attributes much of their success to their ability to dominate away from home. He believes that the team’s confidence, built on their unbeaten streak at challenging venues like Anfield and the Etihad, will be crucial in securing a positive result in Birmingham.
In a recent interview with Arsenal Official websit, Arteta expressed his belief in the team’s capabilities:
“[It proves] that we’ve done it, that’s the confidence. Now we have to show it again. Tomorrow we go there with that belief and being very clear in what we want to do and what we have to do to earn the right to win the game, and we will certainly try to do that tomorrow.”
With Arsenal prepares to face Aston Villa, the team is focused on leveraging their away form to kick off the new season with a strong performance. Arteta’s confidence in his squad’s abilities and their proven track record on the road provide a solid foundation for what promises to be an exciting match.
