League leaders Arsenal will be hoping to bounce back from last weekend's defeat when they welcome Wolves to the Emirates on Saturday. Mikel Arteta's team suffered their first Premier League defeat since August but now face Rob Edwards' struggling side back at home.
Our Premier League football expert Nathan Joyes provides us with his best bet for this clash.
Arsenal's 18 match unbeaten run came to a cruel end last weekend when Aston Villa's Emiliano Buendia stabbed home a 95th minute winner. Yet four days later Arsenal were back to winning ways with a comprehensive 3-0 win over Club Brugge in the Champions League.
But Arteta will have his eyes firmly on returning to winning ways in the Premier League. And having won their last eight matches at home - scoring 20 and conceding just two - the Gunners could be ready to record another big scoreline.
With a big squad this campaign, Arteta rotated slightly midweek - giving his preferred XI an extra few days off before yet another key match this weekend. Everything is well at Arsenal - despite that loss last weekend.
After equalising and holding Man United to a 1-1 scoreline at half-time on Monday, Rob Edwards would have been hopeful his side could squeeze out a rare point - and his first since taking charge.
Instead, the usual dismal display followed and the visitors left with four goals and all three points.
That's now nine consecutive defeats to Wolves across all competitions - and their last win back in September looks a distant memory.
Currently on track to match or beat Derby County's unwanted Premier League record for the lowest ever points, a trip to the Emirates is the last place on earth Wolves will want to go.
There's no real surprise to learn that Arsenal have won their last eight matches against Wolves - keeping a clean sheet in five of those. Only one meeting (2023) saw Arsenal score more than two (5-0) although that looks likely to change this weekend.
With Arsenal capable of beating anyone and Wolves almost capable of beating no one, anything but a home win will be a shock. But what's the value pick?
Nathan Joyes has taken a look at the Premier League odds for this match and puts forward his best pick.
The bookmakers aren't taking an chances with Arsenal's price (1/8 with Betfred) this weekend - and I don't blame them. Arsenal don't have a match for seven days post this fixture and Arteta will want to see his team make a statement victory after their loss last weekend.
And so Wolves (20/1) with Betano) could not be playing Arsenal at a worse time. Rarely do we witness a team at such big odds in the Premier League - but it could be 100/1 and it wouldn't entice many.
Instead, we're going hunting for goals on the handicap line. Arsenal are surprisingly odds-against to win the match by three goals or more. That bet has landed against Spurs, Atletico Madrid, Nottingham Forest, Leeds and Athletic Bilbao this season - the vast majority way above Wolves' level.
Sometimes, there's simply no need to overcomplicate a selection. Arsenal don't need to rotate and Arteta won't take this game lightly. Wolves are dead on their feet - and if they concede early this could easily get out of hand.
