Recent respective form guides

Wolverhampton Wanderers have only collected 1 win and 3 draws from the last six home games played. Only 4 goals have been registered in this time, with 6 in the wrong end.

Arsenal's away form is none too clever either, with two wins, two draws, and two defeats. The Gunners's have scored 10 goals in these games, but conceded an alarming 11.

Wolves are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 10 points from 11 matches. Arsenal's total of 22 points from their 10 games sees them sitting in the playoff places in Barclays Premier League.
