Player(s) to watch:
- Matheus Cunha has been one of the consistent players for Wolves as he has scored 10 goals so far in the Premier League 2024-25 season. Although, he has not scored for them in their last few games. Matheus Cunha can be the game-changer here. There have been some rumours regarding Cunha leaving Wolves but nothing has been confirmed from the team and the player.
- Kai Havertz will take the responsibility on his shoulders in this clash. This is an important game and Havertz can help his side come on top. The German striker has only been able to score eight goals for Arsenal in the Premier League in 19 matches but is always a big threat to the opponents.
