Preview & Prediction: Arsenal vs Wolverhamptom Wanderers

The Premier League returns to action this weekend, with Wolverhampton Wanderers taking on Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal in a vital match at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday.

Wolverhampton Wanderers are now 13th in the Premier League table and have not played well this season. The away team drew 1-1 with Everton last week and will need to step up a notch in this game. Arsenal, on the other hand, is now second in the league table and has been pretty outstanding this season. The Gunners were defeated 1-0 by Nottingham Forest in their previous encounter and will need to bounce back this weekend.

Arsenal beat Lopetegui’s Sevilla 6-0 in the 2022 Emirates Cup, which was a sign of things to come for the Palanganas before they turned things around. The 56-year-old coach couldn’t have been happier when Yerry Mina scored in the last minute to cancel out Hwang Hee-chan’s first-half goal in a 1-1 draw with Everton last week.

The Colombian’s equaliser in stoppage time ended Wolves’ four-game winning streak at Molineux. They are currently in 13th place and could finish as high as 11th or as low as 15th, depending on how other teams do. Wolves haven’t won any of their last seven games on the road, and they have only done better than Leeds United and Nottingham Forest on other teams’ turf this season.

Arsenal’s last Premier League game before the World Cup was a 2-0 win over Wolves in the West Midlands. This win made it three in a row for the Gunners over Lopetegui’s team, the second of which was a 2-1 win for the Gunners 15 months ago thanks to a late own goal by Jose Sa.

Prediction:

Based on their recent form and head to head record, Arsenal are the favorites to win this match. Wolverhampton Wanderers have been struggling to score goals and have been poor away from home this season. However, both teams have had trouble finding the back of the net in the last few games, so we might not see a high-scoring match. The previous meetings between these two teams have been relatively low-scoring affairs, so a 1-0 or 2-0 win for Arsenal seems likely.
