Arsenal and Wolverhampton Wanderers will meet again on Thursday, a fortnight after their first meeting of the season which Arsenal won 1-0 at the Molineux. This time Arsenal will play hosts, with two points separating the two sides; the Gunners in sixth place with 42 points and Wolves seventh on 40 points. Both teams are coming from wins; Arsenal beat Brentford 2-1 on Saturday and they will go into this game seeking a third straight win. The Gunners have recovered from their slow start to the year and in the Brentford game they were close to keeping anther clean sheet. Going into this game they have three clean sheets in the last five matches but failed to score in three of the five games. Four of their last five matches have produced under 2.5 goals and they have scored more than a goal in just one of the five matches. In the Premier League, Arsenal have one loss only in the last eight games and here they will have more options with Gabriel Martinelli back from suspension and Takehiro Tomiyasu back from injury.

Wolves are coming from a hard fought 2-1 win over Leicester City at home. Facing Arsenal just 14 days after their earlier meeting will feel like a chance for revenge for Wolves, who lost at home to 10-man Gunners. Astute defending denied Wolves a point at home even after Gabriel Martinelli’s sending off, and Wolves here will be out to make amends. Three wins in their last five matches leaves the impression that this is something they can do, though they failed to score in two of their last four matches. Three of their last four matches have yielded under 2.5 goals but they’ve scored twice in three of those five matches. Wolves have a fine away run, with four straight wins and will approach this game high in confidence. Four of their last five away matches have however produced under 2.5 goals, with Wolves managing three clean sheets and failing to score more than one in three of the five away games. In the league, Wolves have dropped points in just two of their last eight matches; they’ve gained 19 points from a possible 24. They recently beat Tottenham in North London and will have fond memories as they go back, having beaten Arsenal there in their last visit.
