Arsenal will be looking to strengthen their position at the top of the Premier League standings on Saturday, as they look to open up a four-point advantage on Manchester City. Wolves will be the visitors to the Emirates this weekend.
Premier League Preview
Arsenal have made a very pleasing start to the new Premier League season, and they could potentially open up a four-point advantage on Manchester City if they are able to claim maximum points on Saturday. The Gunners currently sit a point clear at the summit after winning each of their previous two matches in the competition.
Arsenal managed to continue their winning sequence in dramatic fashion last weekend, as Kai Havertz scored an 89th-minute winner to land a 1-0 success against Brentford. The Gunners were forced to remain patient in that fixture, as they were limited to few goalscoring opportunities. However, their defensive play gave them the platform to build on at the Gtech Community Stadium.
Fears of relegation have been eased in recent weeks for Wolves, as they will be looking t continue their decent recent form by moving into the top half of the standings with a victory on Saturday. The Black Country club have already won four times this term, and they have suffered just one defeat across their previous five matches.
However, scoring goals continues to be an issue for Wolves, as they have netted just 16 times in their 12 Premier League matches to this point. They will not have the luxury of missing a number of chances in this match on the road on Saturday, but their counter-attacking threat could make them a decent outside chance.
Arsenal vs Wolves Head to Head
Arsenal boasts an excellent recent record in this fixture, as they have won each of their previous four against Wolves. That includes a 5-0 success in this exact fixture at the end of last season. However, Wolves did record an away win against the Gunners back in November 2020.
Arsenal vs Wolves Prediction
This is likely to be a tricky test for the Gunners, as Wolves boast excellent quality on the counter-attack. Therefore, both teams to score could be a fine selection at the odds available. But, we still expect Arsenal to edge to a home win to extend their advantage at the top of the standings.
