Wolverhampton Wanderers form and stats

Wolverhampton Wanderers have played 16 Premier League games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 6-7-3 (wins-draws-losses).

The Wolves goalkeeper Rui Pedro dos Santos Patricio is looking to record 90 more "clean sheet" minutes as his team have now played 405 minutes without conceding a goal in the Premier League.

Happy days for Wolves in their previous game, a Premier League match away at Aston Villa (placed 18th) that ended with a 1-0 victory. Previous to that game, a home match hosting AFC Bournemouth in a game that was won 1-0.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Wolves have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found three matches with the results: Won one, drawn two and lost zero.

Wolverhampton Wanderers are traveling soon after this match as the Premier League match at Sheffield United awaits in four days.

The Wolverhampton Wanderers fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 22 in 16 matches. 17 goals have been conceded.

Arsenal form and stats

The visitors are W3-D8-L5 on the road this term. That's in the Premier League.

180 minutes! That's how long the Arsenal goalkeeper Damian Emiliano Martinez and his defense have shut out their league opponents.

Arsenal had fun at their own home (Molineux Stadium) last time out, beating Norwich City 4-0. Cédric Soares, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (2) and Granit Xhaka scored. Before that one, a nice away victory 2-1 at Sheffield United.

As you can tell from the results above, Arsenal was very dominant against Norwich City, winning the match with a scoreline that even the finest fortune teller couldn't predict. 4-0 (!) with Cédric Soares, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (2) and Granit Xhaka providing the goals.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Arsenal playing away and similar expectations, we found six relevant matches. Results were three Arsenal wins, two draws and one defeat.

After this away game Arsenal return home for a Premier League game against Leicester City. That game is only three sleeps after this.
