Arsenal, currently leading the Premier League, has been in top form, especially after their latest triumph against Brentford and a stunning 6-0 victory over Lens in the Champions League. Now through to the last 16 in Europe, Arsenal’s focus shifts entirely to maintaining their lead and aiming to top the Premier League by Christmas.
Wolves’ Threat
Wolverhampton Wanderers, despite a rocky start to the season, have shown remarkable resilience. Their scoring streak in the Premier League has been impressive, with goals in their last 12 matches. This attacking prowess poses a potential challenge to Arsenal, who have been conceding an average of a goal per game at the Emirates Stadium.
Despite Wolves’ scoring ability, they’ve faced setbacks away from home, losing four out of seven matches. Arsenal, on the other hand, has been formidable at home, remaining unbeaten in seven league games and winning five. This sets the stage for an Arsenal win, but with both teams likely to score.
Gabriel Jesus: The Key Player
Gabriel Jesus, Arsenal’s dynamic forward, has a history of performing exceptionally against Wolves. With six goals and an assist in six Premier League starts against them, including a goal and an assist in the last encounter, Jesus is a player to watch. Coming off impressive performances in Europe, he’s a strong bet to score against Wolves, continuing his impressive run against them.
