Matchday 14 in the English Premier League sees league leaders Arsenal taking on 12th-place Wolves at the Emirates. The hosts are coming off a scintillating display in their midweek Champions League fixture, running out 6-0 winners over French side RC Lens. The Gunners effectively put the game to bed in the first half hour of play, racing out to a 4-0 lead by the 27th minute. The victory saw Mikel Arteta’s squad clinch their spot in the round of 16 in Europe’s most prestigious club competition. They now return to domestic play where they will be out to continue their unbeaten run on home soil. Arsenal are 5-2-0 at the Emirates in the Premier League which improves to 8-2-0 across all competitions. In those 10 home matches, Arsenal have blasted in 30 goals and conceded just seven for a +23 goal differential. The Gunners are currently on a four game winning streak, their longest of the season so far.

Wolves were involved in a wild fixture against Fulham on Monday, twice battling back from a goal down only to concede a penalty in the 94th minute of play. Former Chelsea and Arsenal man Willian would convert to spot kick to hand Wolverhampton a heartbreaking 3-2 defeat. The loss was the second in the last three matches for Gary O’Neil’s side who had previously been gaining some positive momentum. Wolves had taken eight points from four matches, including a 2-1 home win over Manchester City prior to their recent slide. They’ll have to channel a similar type of performance here as they face off against an in-form Arsenal side that will be playing with supreme confidence after their glut of goals. Wolves are 12th in the standings with a five-point gap separating themselves from the top half.
