Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta says his players are determined to bounce back against Aston Villa.
The Gunners have lost the Premier League leadership after defeat to new leaders Manchester City.
Arteta said today: "I know the right things we have to do to continue to be there [at the top].
"We have seen where the level is and what we have to do to be at that level.
"There are a lot of positive things to take, for sure, from the season so far [and Wednesday night's defeat at home to Manchester City].
"We know that the level of efficiency has to be good with every single game to beat them [City] at the end.
"We are highly motivated to do that."
On defeat to Manchester City, he added: "You have to give credit to a team when they beat you, but when you analyse the game again, I think we lost it.
"It is normal that you want to get maximum points, which we didn't in the last few games.
"We have to look at ourselves. We have to be more efficient - with amount of play and situations we generated we haven't had enough points. That is down to us, we have to improve on that because we want to win more games.
"So we are highly motivated for tomorrow's game because we want to perform well and win the game."
On Aston Villa manager Unai Emery, Arteta said: "He will always put a very difficult test. He is a very good manager. I have huge respect for him and for what he has done at every club he has been and the success he has had. So big respect for him."
