Aston Villa fans are in dreamland right now. Unai Emery's team made it three wins from three in the Champions League on Tuesday, brushing aside Bologna 2-0 at Villa Park. Attention now turns back to the EPL, where Villa have made a strong start as they target another top-four finish.

Bournemouth gave Arsenal a bloody nose last weekend, so they should not be underestimated. They have had longer to prepare for this match and their energetic pressing could cause Villa one or two problems. But it is hard to back against Emery's side, who have more strength in depth and are a tough nut to crack at home, having lost just one of their last nine league assignments in front of their own fans.

Tune in to find out who comes out on top, plus make sure you don’t miss any of the EPL action with our how to watch Premier League live streams guide.
