Hello and welcome to our live coverage of the game between Arsenal and Aston Villa at Emirates Stadium on the opening day of the Premier League season.

There goes the final whistle. All over. A 3-1 win for the visitors. Can't say they didn't deserve the three points.

We are into three minutes of time added on.

He is at least going to be okay here after some treatment. Meanwhile, more Arsenal fans stream out of the ground.

A bad injury for Sagna as he challenged for a high ball. Fell almost on his neck. Needing some attention here.

Wiemann departs for Leandro Bacuna as the Villa fans continue their celebrations.

The Arsenal fans are heading for the exit doors. They have seen enough. Those who remain are aiming a few unsavoury chants at Arsene Wenger. As you would expect.

Changes coming here for Villa, and their delighted manager Paul Lambert. The Villa fans are going to have a good night out tonight, one would suspect.

Goodness knows what the Arsenal players were thinking about? Down to 10 men, and they are throwing every man up the park.

GOAL! Luna races from his own half before cracking the ball into the net via a post. Arsenal all at sea. Game over. Villa lead 3-1.

Luna cuts the ball off at source as Walcott tried to throw over a piercing cross.

All or nothing now for Arsenal. At the moment, it looks like nothing. Villa are playing a smart game. And have every man in their own half.

Wilshere tries to come up a spot on inspiration, but his shot from distance is easily held by Guzan.

Only the Villa fans can be heard inside the Emirates though you hear the frustration among the home fans.

Chance for Benteke to seal the deal, but he drives the ball wide of goal inside the home area with only Szczesny to beat.

Paul Lambert looking as animated as when he won the Champions League with Borussia Dortmund. Guzan off his line to clasp a cross.

Another booking here. Cazorla late this time on El Ahmadi.

Cazorla sees a volley come back off the bar after Guzan had got a touch on it. Great stop by Guzan, and probably deserved the luck as the ball came back off his woodwork via the deck. Cazorla can't fathom how that stayed out.

Jenkinson flattens Delph with a late, late challenge. A free-kick to Villa before Arsenal retrieve seconds later.

Some smart play by Villa here. They don't need to go anywhere with it. They have the extra man, and that should count for so much in these closing stages.

Villa sitting deep and hitting on the break. Rosicky with the hopeful cross, but Vlaar deals well with the danger to clear. And the visiting side can slow it down.
