Arsenal is on the brink of a significant showdown this Saturday evening, as they aim to reignite their Premier League championship ambitions against Wolverhampton Wanderers at Molineux. The pursuit of their first league victory since 2004 encountered a setback after a disheartening 2-0 defeat to Aston Villa the previous Sunday, complicating their path to the title.
The Gunners are the strong favourites with CopyBet at 4/11 to keep their title fight going while Wolves are 13/2 to gift Man City and Liverpool in the Premier League and a draw is 4/1. Arsenal's recent record has been impressive against Wolves with five wins on the bounce including clean sheets in their last two meetings at Molineux.
The challenges for Mikel Arteta's team intensified over the week following their exit from the Champions League due to a close 1-0 loss to Bayern Munich, marking a tough phase for the squad.
With little time to reflect on these recent disappointments, Arsenal is now focusing on their upcoming match against Wolves. The latter is equally eager to break free from their own slump. Positioned 11th in the league standings, Wolves are striving to ascend into the upper echelons of the table but have been hindered by a four-match winless streak.
Despite their struggles, Gary O’Neil’s squad showed remarkable resilience last weekend by securing a 2-2 draw against Nottingham Forest after initially trailing behind. As both teams prepare for this crucial clash, it becomes evident that Arsenal’s quest for the title and Wolves' ambition for recovery will transform this game into a compelling contest of determination and resilience.
Both teams to score — 21/20
Draw — 4/1
