Wolves vs Arsenal: EPL Match Preview, Odds & Prediction

Arsenal will return to Premier League action on Saturday afternoon when they visit Molineux. The Gunners fumbled a two-goal lead against Aston Villa last weekend and will be looking to return to winning ways in the Premier League.

Previous Matches and Head-to-head

Starting with the home team, the Wolves may have had a spectacular start to Vitor Pereira's stay last month, but the Old Gold have undoubtedly fallen to earth concerningly. Even though the former Flamengo manager guided them to seven points from their first three Premier League games, it could have been a slight help for the relegation scrappers.

Wolves have now lost their previous three Premier League games by a combined score of 9-1, and they enter Saturday's match with only their goal differential keeping them out of the relegation zone. Pereira's team has had several problems at the back, losing 3-1 on the road at Chelsea earlier this week. On Saturday, the hosts have the poorest defensive record among the best in England, having conceded 51 goals this season.

Arsenal will be looking for a similar performance after the visitors secured a straightforward 3-0 success against Dinamo Zagreb earlier in the week, giving them a much-needed Champions League boost. But after a complete collapse in north London last weekend, when they were forced to settle for a 2-2 draw against Aston Villa at home,

Mikel Arteta's team is in dire need of some much-needed stability. The Gunners have only won once in their past five domestic games across all categories, having seen their FA Cup journey come to an abrupt end on January 12th at the hands of old rivals Manchester United. Now that their hopes of winning the Premier League championship are in jeopardy,

Arsenal must win this match. However, Arteta's team will be sniffing a great chance when they go to Molineux, having not lost a single game since the beginning of November.

Wolves vs Arsenal Team News

Wolves' foursome of Yerson Mosquera, Enzo Gonzalez, Boubacar Traore, and Austrian attacker Sasa Kalajdzic will again be out due to their chronic knee issues. Portuguese defender Toti, who hasn't played since Boxing Day, won't play this weekend.

Wolves will lead their assault here thanks to offensive talisman Matheus Cunha. However, there may still be a lot of conjecture about a transfer away from Molineux in late January. Goncalo Guedes, settling for a bench berth away at Chelsea on Monday night, may get a complete recall.

This weekend, Arsenal will again be without its offensive talisman, Bukayo Saka, who had surgery last month for a hamstring injury. Gabriel Jesus, a former Manchester City striker, will also miss the rest of the season after suffering a permanent knee injury against Manchester United earlier this month.

Kai Havertz, a German international, will be used in a false nine position after scoring goals in consecutive games over the last week. Ethan Nwaneri, a 17-year-old phenom, might make his Premier League debut after January 4th when he rejoins Arteta's team midweek.

Our Predictions

Arsenal to win @ 1.45 on Sky247.ng

Arsenal should be enjoying a trip to the Midlands after claiming a much-needed Champions League boost earlier in the week. The Gunners, who haven't lost on the road since returning from their international vacation in November, will be hoping to take advantage of a Wolves team in the middle of yet another concerning slump. Arteta's team is appropriately positioned as a formidable challenger this weekend since Saturday's hosts lost all three of their prior Premier League games by an aggregate score of 9-1.
