Arsenal vs Wolverhampton Prediction

Arsenal remain at the top of the Premier League with their current run of form. This week, the Gunners will host Wolverhampton (Wolves) at home. This is an opportunity for Mikel Arteta's team to aim for another victory and maintain their lead over chasing team Manchester City.

The London team is becoming increasingly effective with a variety of attacking options. When Martin Odegaard is marked by opponents, there are still other players ready to shine, such as Martinelli, Saka, Jesus, and even Kai Havertz.

Despite the difficulties in adapting, the German player occasionally still provides goals for Arsenal.

Meanwhile, Wolves are a special case in the Premier League. Despite not having a huge squad, Wolves pursue an attractive style of play based on the technical quality of their attacking stars.

Hwang Hee-chan, Matheus Cunha, and Pedro Neto have all proven their abilities and are ready for major transfers.

However, Wolves' defense isn't strong enough. They've conceded in 11 consecutive games and dropped points somewhat unnecessarily during this run. Manager O'Neil's team has also suffered from some inaccurate refereeing decisions. Nevertheless, their 12th place position and 10-point lead over the relegation zone have significantly reduced the pressure on Dawson and his teammates.

Wolves are a team capable of surprising big opponents with their distinctive style of play. However, Arsenal are currently in stable form and it won't be easy for them to get points at the Emirates Stadium.

Arsenal vs Wolves squad

Arsenal continue to be without Thomas Parter, Smith Rowe, and Jurrien Timber due to long-term injuries. Fabio Vieira is also sidelined with injury, but he is serving a three-match suspension. Tomiyasu and Zinchenko left the pitch early midweek but did not suffer any injuries. David Raya is available to return for the match against Wolves.

On the other side of the pitch, manager Gary O'Neil faces several personnel issues. Rayan Ait-Nouri is injured and unavailable. Pedro Neto and Joe Hodge are definitely out. However, Wolves welcome back Bueno, Doherty, Otto, and Dawson. Hwang Hee-chan and Matheus Cunha are also fully fit.

Arsenal vs Wolves form

Arsenal just secured a resounding 6-0 victory against Lens in the Champions League. Mikel Arteta's team is in impressive form, with four wins in their last four matches across all competitions. In the Premier League alone, they have won four, drawn one, and lost one of their last six games.

Wolves' form hasn't been that good. They've focused on just one competition, the Premier League, winning two, drawing two, and losing two. However, Wolves are only a moderately good team in England, and this result isn't too bad.
