Wolves vs Arsenal preview It was a good, routine win for Arsenal in the Champions League in midweek, now they’re back trying to bridge the gap to Liverpool this weekend. That task has been made considerably harder after last week’s collapse, throwing away a 2-0 lead to draw 2-2 with Aston Villa at the Emirates. That came just a couple of hours after Liverpool looked set to drop points themselves, until super-sub Darwin Nunez bagged twice in injury time to beat Brentford.
Despite having played one more game, Mikel Arteta’s team is now six points behind the leaders. Oddly, they are both playing on Saturday at 3 p.m., with Arsenal at Molineux and Liverpool at home against Ipswich. They have already won two of their previous six games after defeating Dinamo Zagreb on Wednesday, but they are heavy favorites to win three points here. Wolves’ recovery under the new management was quick, but they have since regressed, losing three of their previous four games while giving up three goals each time.
In the last seven encounters across all competitions, Arsenal has won all seven games and the Gunners have only given up twice. They are under pressure to win, but a victory in the middle of the week should boost their confidence, and they can support it with comparable outcomes.
Given how Arsenal attacks down their left, you can’t help but be pulled to Wolves’ right-hand side when looking at the booking markets. It’s a difficult task for the hosts down their right, and Nelson Semedo quickly catches the eye, whether it’s Leandro Trossard or Gabriel Martinelli. Promotion
