Matchday coverage of Arsenal's Premier League match with Wolves from Molineux

Arsenal take on Wolves at Molineux as they look to move seven points clear at the top of the Premier League table. Manchester City will not be able to reply until their clash with Crystal Palace is rearranged following both title hopefuls reaching the Carabao Cup final.

There was good news regarding Riccardo Calafiori, whom Mikel Arteta confirmed was fit to return, while Martin Odegaard and Kai Havertz are not yet ready to come back. Mikel Merino remains out while Max Dowman is again in training.

For Wolves, this remains an important game despite the overwhelming feeling that relegation is inevitable. However, their match with Crystal Palace on Sunday is by far and away a bigger game for the relegation battlers and so whether Rob Edward prioritises that remains to be seen.

The Gunners on the other hand have the North London Derby. However, in their case, every single game has huge importance because dropping any points in any game is massively detrimental to their title hopes, particularly here.

Wolves team confirmed

Wolves: Sa, Tchatchoua, Mosquera, S Bueno, Krejci, H Bueno, Andre, A Gomes, Mane, Bellegarde, Armstrong.

Subs: Johnstone, Doherty, Moller Wolfe, J Gomes, Arokodare, Lima, R Gomes, Rawlings, Edozie.

Arsenal team confirmed

Arsenal: Raya, Timber, Saliba, Gabriel, Hincapie, Zubimendi, Rice, Madueke, Martinelli, Saka, Gyokeres.

Subs: Arrizabalaga, White, Calafiori, Lewis-Skelly, Mosquera, Norgaard, Eze, Trossard, Jesus.

Arsenal take on Wolves at Molineux on Wednesday evening, looking to reinstall the seven-point gap between themselves and Manchester City. The gap has been closed recently, and the Gunners can pick up a win without reply this week, which could alleviate some of the pressure they have faced.

The draw with Brentford sparked something of a mini meltdown as the nerves in the final dozen matches of the season reached a new peak. There are still some fitness concerns about some members of the squad. However, there was positive news that Riccardo Calafiori and the hope Kai Havertz and Martin Odegaard will be back soon.

With that said, Read how football.london believes Arteta will select for his Arsenal starting XI here.
