Arsenal vs Wolverhampton Predictions
- Wolves have scored in 12 straight Premier League games
- Arsenal have won five of seven home matches in the league this term (D2)
- The visitors have suffered four defeats across their first seven away trips
Gunners hope to be top at Christmas
December isn’t a month that has been traditionally kind to Arsenal, but the Gunners open the month top of the Premier League after last weekend’s late win over Brentford. They got another boost in midweek, with their attacking talents gelling in a fantastic 6-0 win over Lens in the Champions League.
The Gunners are into the last 16 in Europe, meaning their focus for this month is solely on being the Premier League’s Christmas number one. With just two points splitting the top four, Arsenal will need to kick off the festive season with a victory.
Wolves show real bite
While Arsenal have lofty ambitions, this is a Wolves side who could cause them some serious problems. They opened the season in a turbulent state, but their opening 1-0 loss at Old Trafford showed a side who could get forward with real cutting edge. Wolves deserved a goal in that game and they haven’t fallen short since, scoring in each of their last 12 Premier League games.
The visitors are on their second-best scoring streak in the top-flight and they can find the net against an Arsenal side who have shipped a goal per game at the Emirates this term. The Gunners have had issues keeping clean sheets at home since the start of last season, which should allow Wolves to get forward here and grab a goal.
However, the visitors have lost four of their seven away trips this term and they meet an Arsenal side who have gone unbeaten across seven home league games, winning five. The Gunners should prove too strong, so look to Arsenal to win and both teams to score.
Jesus can make his mark
One man who should relish this fixture is Gabriel Jesus, who has been a frequent thorn in the paw of Wolves. The Brazilian has six goals and an assist across his six Premier League starts against them, including a goal and an assist in Arsenal’s win in this fixture back in May.
Jesus has been working his way back to fitness and he’s made his mark in the Champions League already, producing a goal and an assist in each of his last two Europea appearances. He can add to that this weekend against one of his favourite sides to play against, so back Jesus to score anytime.
