Aston Villa guaranteed to be without star vs Arsenal as Mikel Arteta faces Thomas Party wait

Aston Villa will be welcoming back three first team stars to their side as they prepare to face Arsenal at Villa Park on Saturday. Ahead of the reunion for former Gunners boss Unai Emery, the Villans had some further positive news.

Ex-club captain Tyrone Mings has agreed a new deal with the Midlands based side and the capped England international is back in contention to play against Arsenal too. Having come in for some major criticism this season under Steven Gerrard, Mings has remained central to Emery's planning.

The 29-year-old has a decent record against Mikel Arteta's men too. In his eight matches played he has won three, losing five. He has been on the losing side in the past three matches though, and will face the task of stopping an out of form attack.
