Wolves possible 11:
Sá, Kilman, Coady, Saiss, Semedo, Dendoncker, Neves, Moutinho, Nouri, Jiménez and Podence
Arsenal possible 11:
Ramsdale, Tierney, Gabriel, White, Soares, Xhaka, Partey, Martinelli, Ødegaard, Saka and Lacazette
Prediction: Wolves 2-1 Arsenal
Wolves are in fine form in the league during recent matches and will look to stamp their authority.
The Gunners have been poor during their recent run and look a shadow of themselves. This could go down to the wire given the quality on either side.
Given that Wolves are in home comforts, we see them nick this one.
Players to watch out for: Jimenez, Neves, Saka and Martinelli.
