Wolves vs Arsenal prediction, stats, tips & team news

Arsenal will look to continue their hunt for the Premier League title when they travel to Molineux to face Wolverhampton Wanderers on Saturday 25th January at 3pm. The Gunners are six points behind leaders Liverpool after 22 games, however Arne Slot’s side have a game in hand Wolves are at the other end of the table, only outside of the relegation zone on goal difference.

Nelson Semedo to Commit 1+ Foul & to Win 1+ Foul (1/1 with Paddy Power)

The first selection I’m opting for is Nelson Semedo to commit one or more fouls, and for the Wolves full-back to also win one or more fouls. Paddy Power are best-priced at this selection, at even money via their bet builder.

This bet has landed in nine of Semedo’s last ten Premier League appearances. He has been booked seven times in the league this season and should be in for a good battle with Leandro Trossard.

Gabriel to Score a Header (17/2 with Paddy Power)

Gabriel averages 0.24 goals per 90 minutes for Arsenal this season and has scored in five of his 24 appearances. The Brazilian’s last eight top-flight goals have all arrived vis his head, and with this in mind, 17/2 for him to score via his swede against a side 17th in the table looks a great price.

How both teams go into Wolves vs Arsenal

Wolves enjoyed a new manager bounce since replacing Gary O’Neil with Vitor Pereira. The Portuguese boss went unbeaten in his first three games, lifting Wolves out of the bottom three. However, that run now seems a long time ago and since then they are winless in four and have tasted defeat in their last three. Just goal difference separates Wolves in 17th and Ipswich in 18th.

Arsenal may have some work to do in the title race, but the Gunners won’t give up until it is mathematically impossible for them to catch Liverpool. Mikel Arteta’s side may have struggled in cup competitions of late, but the Gunners are unbeaten in 12 in the Premier League, winning seven. The Gunners are also unbeaten in their past six away league games since losing back-to-back matches against Bournemouth and Newcastle United.

Wolves team news

Wolves have hit a tough patch regarding injuries, but things are expected to have eased when this one comes around. Pereira will still be without Sasa Kalajdzic, Enso Gonzalez and Yerson Mosquera and. Boubacar Traore.

Arsenal team news

Arsenal are also having bad luck with injuries. The Gunners will be without Bukayo Saka, Ben White, Takehiro Tomiyasu, Gabriel Jesus, and William Saliba.

Wolves vs Arsenal head-to-head

Arsenal have won their past seven games against Wolves after losing back-to-back matches in the 2020-21 season. The Gunners have kept clean sheets in five of those matches.
