"while Arsenal might have suffered last-gasp heartbreak away at Aston Villa last weekend as they eventually fell to a 2-1 loss in the Midlands, Mikel Arteta's men claimed an immediate response on Wednesday night. Extending on their 100% Champions League record as they cruised their way to a routine 3-0 victory away at Club Brugge, the Gunners are regarded as a standout contender to claim a first domestic crown since 2004."
"Likewise, in what is a major blow for the Gunners, Arsenal are also expected to once again be without the defensive duo of William Saliba and Gabriel Magalhaes. Recently returning from a hamstring injury, big-money summer recruit Viktor Gyokeres should make a first Premier League start since returning from November's international break. Despite notching just a sole domestic strike over the past five weeks, England international Bukayo Saka will lead the line here."
Arsenal lost 2-1 at Aston Villa but responded with a 3-0 Champions League win at Club Brugge. The team holds a two-point lead in the Premier League and remain strong title contenders. Arsenal have won eight consecutive matches at the Emirates across all competitions by an aggregate score of 20-2. Kai Havertz is nearing fitness but will not play, while William Saliba and Gabriel Magalhaes are expected to miss the match. Viktor Gyokeres should make a first Premier League start since returning from a hamstring injury. Bukayo Saka will lead the line despite scoring only once in the past five weeks. Wolves occupy bottom position under new manager Rob Edwards and face a difficult task.
