Wolves vs Arsenal prediction: Goals expected on Saturday
Key Stats
- Each of Arsenal's last three matches have produced over 2.5 goals.
- Three of the last six meetings between these two clubs have ended with at least three goals scored.
- Kai Havertz top scores for Arsenal this season with eight Premier League goals.
Correct score prediction: Wolves 1-3 Arsenal
Wolves have lost three of their last four fixtures, conceding three goals on each occasion, and the Gunners arrive on the back of scoring three goals against Dinamo Zagreb in midweek. However, Arsenal have only managed to keep one clean sheet in their last six attempts, which is why we've backed a correct scoreline prediction of 3-1 in the visitors' favour.
Pre-game odds and win probability: Arsenal the clear favourite
- HOME: 6/1 (7.00) – 14.3%
- DRAW: 15/4 (4.75) – 21.1%
- AWAY: 1/2 (1.50) – 66.7%
*odds from Ladbrokes, subject to change
Arsenal are the expected winner of this game with a probability of 66.7%, and we can't argue with the bookmakers on this selection.

Wolves preview: Lost last three in the league
Wolves made the trip to Stamford Bridge last weekend and fell behind in the 24th minute.
Matt Doherty equalised for the visitors deep into first-half stoppage time but it proved to be a false dawn for Wolves as Chelsea scored twice in the second 45 to win the game 3-1.
Yerson Mosquera, Enso Medina, Sasa Kalajdzic, Toti Gomes and Boubacar Traore look set to miss out this weekend due to injury while Mario Lemina has been told he won't feature for the team until the transfer window is closed and he is either sold or still at the club.
Predicted lineup: Sa (GK), Doherty, Semedo, Bueno, Ait-Nouri, Agbadou, Sarabia, J. Gomes, Andre, Strand Larsen & Cunha

Arsenal preview: Won in midweek
While the Gunners claimed an important win in the Champions League in midweek, their last outing in the Premier League ended in a disappointing draw.
Arsenal had the home advantage against Aston Villa and took the lead in the 35th minute via Gabriel Martinelli. Leandro Trossard setup the opening goal and claimed his second assist in the 55th minute for Kai Havertz to put Arsenal into a commanding position. However, Villa pulled a goal back five minutes later and eight minutes after that, the visitors were back on level terms and Arsenal had no response.
Gabriel Jesus, Bukayo Saka, William Saliba, Ben White and Takehiro Tomiyasu will not be available for selection this weekend.
Predicted lineup: Raya (GK), Gabriel, Timber, Partey, Odegaard, Merino, Rice, Lewis-Skelly, Trossard, Havertz & Martinelli

Player to watch – Kai Havertz
Kai Havertz created the opening goal and scored the second in a 3-0 win over Dinamo Zagreb in midweek, and we're backing him to put in another top performance this weekend.
The German international has scored five goals in his last ten appearances across all competitions, which includes his last two games.
Performed well in midweek
Wolves have a poor defence and we're expecting Arsenal to take full advantage on Saturday with Havertz adding to his goal tally.
