Wolves vs Arsenal - LIVE. Arsenal must return to winning ways in the Premier League as they travel to face Wolves this afternoon. The Gunners surrendered a two-goal lead last weekend as they were held to a draw by Aston Villa, further denting their title hopes. Arsenal sit six points behind leaders Liverpool having played a game more.
Mikel Arteta’s side eased past Dinamo Zagreb in midweek and will be hoping to carry that form into this match, particularly with Kai Havertz now rediscovering his goalscoring touch. William Saliba and Myles Lewis-Skelly are both injury doubts, and Arteta could opt against risking them with a big clash against Manchester City to come next weekend.
A trip to Wolves brings an interesting subplot in the form of Matheus Cunha. Arsenal continue to be linked with a striker in the final days of the transfer window and Cunha is one of those the club are interested in, but Wolves insist they will not sell. A strong display from Cunha here would pile the pressure on Arsenal to act over the next week. Follow all the action with Standard Sport’s LIVE blog below, featuring expert analysis from Simon Collings at Molineux!.
Wolves could have Toti Gomes available this weekend, but Sasa Kalajdzic remains weeks away. Mario Lemina will not be involved after asking to leave the club. Matheus Cunha will play, but Enso Gonzalez and Yerson Mosquera are out as Boubacar Traore builds up match fitness.
