Arsenal vs Wolves: Match Preview, Odds & Predictions

Once again, Arsenal's Premier League season came to a painful close in May. Finally giving in to Manchester City's machine, the Gunners were in the championship hunt late in the season. Although they won eight of their last ten games, Arsenal were once again narrowly denied the championship by a margin of only two points. The two setbacks that hurt the most were the 1-1 tie with Man City and the 2-0 loss to Aston Villa.

However, there were grounds for optimism. Arsenal established, first and foremost, that their previous championship challenge was no exception. They're not going anywhere. After two fantastic seasons, Mikel Arteta can only hope that Man City will eventually lose this year.

Meanwhile, Wolves' first season under Gary O'Neil's leadership ended in a fourteenth-place result. However, there was undeniably cause for joy. Last season, the Wolves had a tough time keeping important players healthy at crucial times, and they only played to their potential after the campaign after they had ensured their safety.

O'Neil took over for Julen Lopetegui just before the start of the new season, and he never even had a preseason with Wolves. Now that O'Neil has had a whole summer and the team has acquired depth, fans hope he can get Wolves back to the league's top.

Arsenal x Wolves Team News

David Raya will continue to be Arsenal's first-choice goalkeeper after their loan agreement becomes permanent. Arsenal have yet to make many changes to their roster during the summer, but they're crossing their fingers that Jurrien Timber will be ready to go when the new season begins.

This summer has been busy for the Wolves. Jorgen Strand Larsen, a striker on loan from Celta Vigo who had a solid season in La Liga, is one of four new players they've signed. They also let Max Kilman leave, so they had to change the backline. After receiving a red card on the last day of the season against Liverpool, Nelson Semedo will be suspended and unable to play in this match.
