Arsenal travel to Wolves tonight knowing they will be top of the Premier League at Christmas.

Victory for the Gunners will see them go five points clear at the top of the table through the World Cup until Boxing Day, after Manchester City failed to beat Brentford earlier in the day.

Mikel Arteta’s side have to respond to a rare setback, having been knocked out of the Carabao Cup by Brighton in midweek. The Arsenal boss made ten changes to his side for that match, and will hope the return of his first-team stars brings with it a return to winning ways.

Wolves vs Arsenal prediction

Wolves have managed just two wins in the Premier League all season, against the sides currently 18th and 20th in the table.

Arsenal meanwhile were superb at Stamford Bridge and will be confident of swiftly moving on from that Brighton defeat, which can be put down to the number of changes made to the side.

It could be a game played at a slightly slower intensity than usual, as players think about the World Cup starting next week, but Arsenal should have enough regardless to cement their place at the top of the table.

Arsenal win, 2-0.
