Wolves vs Arsenal preview
Arsenal’s season is in danger of petering out after a calamitous week.
Their performance on Sunday when losing to Champions League hopefuls Aston Villa was a real cause for concern, particularly having watched Liverpool fluff their lines earlier in the day.
But Mikel Arteta’s side froze on the big stage at the Allianz Arena to allow Bayern Munich – much criticised for their poor season – to progress to the last four in Europe’s premier competition.
So that’s no wins in three for the Gunners, who are beginning to look tired, especially in the middle of the park where they’ve been so dominant for much of the campaign.
They’re now two points behind Manchester City, who are in FA Cup action this week. So this represents a chance to move back top of the league.
And for as good as Wolves have been for long spells this year, they haven’t won any of their last five games – including against two relegation threatened sides and a Championship side.
Wolves are in 11th place and seven points off Manchester United in seventh. So they look like having not much to play for. Does that make them more or less dangerous?

More misery
Arsenal’s much-praised defence can encounter further issues with a Wolves side looking to take a big scalp.
And they’d likely be in a much stronger position in the table had Matheus Cunha stayed fit and not missed seven games.
He had six goals in his seven games prior to injury and showed his quality with two goals last time out in the away draw at Nottingham Forest and at 3/1 is decent value to back that up with a goal here.

Hav that
For all the recent praise handed to Kai Havertz, he has the same amount of yellow cards in the league as he does goals.
That’s a damning stat for the Gunners centre forward and goes some way to explaining their lack of cutting edge recently.
Nine goals and nine yellows in the league, yet he’s 17/10 to score anytime and a much, much bigger price to be booked. Away from home and his team under pressure? I’m going after that value.

Rice-ly does it
Declan Rice’s own performances have dropped significantly in the past few weeks.
Maybe the season is finally catching up with him as he finds himself in the heart of the midfield every game.
Regardless, he can still be the Gunners driving force and against a team like Wolves who have the ability to sit in, his efforts from distance could be profitable for the Gunners – and this bet!
