Wolverhampton vs Arsenal Predictions

• Both teams have scored in four of Wolves’ last five matches.
• Arsenal have conceded in their last three games.
• Matheus Cunha has scored five goals in his last two starts.

Gunners look to get back on track

Arsenal’s continental dreams were brought crashing back down to earth in midweek as Bayern Munich knocked them out of the Champions League and, after a shock loss to Aston Villa last weekend, the Gunners now find themselves in danger of seeing their season unravel.

Mikel Arteta’s side are winless in three in all competitions and handed the advantage in the title race over to defending champions Manchester City, but they should get back on track against a Wolves outfit winless in their last five.

Wolves on the beach

Gary O’Neil’s side sit 11th in the table and have very little to play for between now and the end of the season, and that may have played a part in a drab few weeks for Wolves fans.

They have drawn two and lost three of their last five in all competitions, although, it must be said, they remain an attacking force, and the return of Matheus Cunha further strengthens their position.

Cunha to contribute at Molineux

The Brazilian scored twice last weekend in his first start since netting a hat-trick at Chelsea in February, so he looks a good price to trouble an Arsenal defence that have conceded in their last three games.

However, keeping the title challengers out at the other end is another question. Wolves are without a clean sheet in seven games and have seen both teams score in five of those, so backing both teams to score appeals.

I do expect Arsenal to bounce back as they look to salvage their season, though, and  repeat of Wolves’ last home game – a 2-1 loss to West Ham – could be on the cards.
