Featured Game | Arsenal vs. Wolverhampton
Why you should back Arsenal
The Gunners managed to beat Wolves in the last meeting despite being down a man for the final 20 minutes after Gabriel Martinelli was sent off. They have allowed 26 goals, fifth-fewest in the league and face a Wolves squad that has tallied just 23 (third-fewest). Arsenal has scored 36, seventh-most, led by Emile Smith Rowe (nine) and Bukayo Saka (seven). Both scored in a 2-1 win against Brentford last Sunday, and the team has scored in 10 of its past 11 games.
A 2-1 loss to league leader Manchester City is Arsenal’s only setback in its past eight EPL games (6-1-1). It has been a better team at the Emirates, allowing just nine goals while scoring 20 in the 12 matches (8-2-2). Arsenal has more talent across the board, with Martin Odegaard (four goals, four assists) joining Saka and Smith Rowe in midfield and Alexandre Lacazette (three, five) leading the attack.
Why you should back Wolves
The Wolverhampton defense and goalkeeper Jose Sa have been among the best in the Premier League all season. Sa is tied for second in the league in saves with 81 and has nine clean sheets. Wolves have been better on the road than at home this season, going 7-2-3 and outscoring opponents 13-8. It is unbeaten in its last four at the Emirates (1-3-0).
Pedro Neto, one of the team’s top players who had five goals and six assists last season, returned from a long-term injury last weekend. The team is at full strength, and it has a 4-1 goal advantage in winning its last two games. The squad doesn’t score a lot of goals, but it does have some talent in attack, with Mexican striker Raul Jimenez and Daniel Podence up top. Podence has five goals in all competitions, Jimenez has a team-best five in league play and they have combined for five assists.
