Confirmed Arsenal line-up vs Wolves
|Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has made three changes to the starting line-up for tonight’s Premier League clash against Wolverhampton Wanderers.
The Gunners have suffered two defeats and one draw in the last three outings and they will be keen to return to winning ways at the Molineux Stadium.
Ahead of the game, Arteta has opted for three changes from the 1-0 defeat at Bayern Munich.
David Raya continues in goal as usual, but there is a change in the backline.
Takehiro Tomiyasu has dropped to the bench with Jakub Kiwior getting the nod at left-back.
Ben White, William Saliba and Gabriel Magalhaes will form the rest of the back four.
In midfield, Arteta has reverted to the combination of Declan Rice and Kai Havertz. Jorginho drops to the bench on the back of another difficult outing in Munich.
Martin Odegaard continues in his preferred number 10 role as usual, but there is a change out wide.
Bukayo Saka continues on the right wing, but Gabriel Martinelli makes way for Leandro Trossard on the left flank.
Gabriel Jesus will lead the line against Wolves and he has a point to prove. He has not scored in any competition since recovering from his knee injury.
Confirmed Arsenal line-up (4-2-3-1) vs Wolves: Raya; White, Saliba, Gabriel, Kiwior; Rice, Havertz; Saka, Odegaard, Trossard; Jesus.
Arsenal are currently two points behind leaders Manchester City in the table. They play twice before the Cityzens will be in action against Brighton & Hove Albion on the road.
The Gunners have the chance to pile the pressure on Pep Guardiola’s side with a couple of victories. Hence, tonight’s game could make or break their league title hopes.
