Wolves have improved under their new manager Vitor Pereira but against the better teams they are let down by too many periods where they come under significant defensive pressure. Wolves have lost their last 3 straight games, conceding 9 goals in the process.

Arsenal are not in the greatest phase of their season and have struggled in both domestic cups in addition to dropping points to Brighton and Aston Villa. But against a team in the bottom 4 places they really should be doing the business. If they still harbour title winning hopes then they have to get the 3 points in these types of matches.

They should simply have too much quality and class for a team like Wolves so taking the Gunners is a good start for any bet builder.

Wolves have conceded 19 goals from set pieces this season and now face an Arsenal side who are known for their prowess from such occasions. Gabriel Magalhaes will likely be at the centre of the action once again. He’s lethal in the air and opponents regularly don’t pick him up which is rather inexplicable.

In the last 5 games for Arsenal in all competitions he’s taken a combined 10 shots. Taking him just to have a single shot or more looks like an excellent bet builder addition here on such a dangerous player in the air.

Wolves midfielder Joao Gomes is the clear candidate from the home team to commit multiple fouls here. He averages 2.30 fouls per 90 mins in the Premier League this season and obtained 6 cards.

His role is clearly very identifiable in this Wolves team as a midfield disruptor and it will be extremely difficult for him to play a clean game against a side like Arsenal.

He’s up against players such as Thomas Partry, Martin Odegaard and Mikel Merino who all draw around one foul per 90 mins each.

Arsenal average 6.30 corners per game in the Premier League this season and Wolves concede an average of 6.70. It is well documented how successful Arsenal have been, especially from corners and it’s no secret that they like to play for them.

The Gunners could cover an over 7.5 corner line on their own but Wolves have shown an upturn in corners since the arrival of new manager Vitor Perreira. They obtained 6 corners vs Chelsea on Monday night, and 5 each vs Spurs and Forest.

There is every chance they could contribute in this department and they have such a good taker in the form of Matheus Cunha that it greatly benefits them to rack up the flag kicks as much as possible.

Following on from the first bet builder. Wolves have conceded 19 goals from set pieces this season and now face an Arsenal side who are known for their prowess from such occasions. Gabriel Magalhaes is the most likely player to profit from such a weakness that Wolves have and he looks a big price to score anytime.

However, let’s just take him to have a single shot on target or more. This is something he’s managed on 8 occasions this season from 34 attempts. His chances are increased due to the opposition and he scored against Man United in the FA Cup recently, another side who are terrible at defending set pieces.

The Norwegian striker might not have developed into the goalscoring force which Wolves fans hoped for this season but he has become very consistent with shots on target recently. Larsen has struck at least one shot on target in all of his last 5 Premier League games and if we go back further then in 9 out of 11 futures.

His positioning is excellent and there is an argument he should finish chances much better. But you can’t deny he is giving himself the opportunities. This looks like a big price despite the opposition. He managed at least one SOT vs the likes of Chelsea, Spurs, Forest & Bournemouth.

Kai Havertz regularly comes under criticism for his finishing but one part of his game which can’t be disputed are his pressing levels. He is effectively used as a pressing forward and is known for giving away cheap free kicks in the opposition half.

Havertz has only been carded 4 times this season but averages 1.80 fouls per 90 mins. He is the master of tactical fouls and disrupting the game. It is part of his role and he’s always a massive contender to commit multiple fouls in a game of football.

He’s up against Andre, Joao Gomes and Nelson Semedo who are all fouled around once per 90 mins.

Wolves’ star man Matheus Cunha averages the most shots per 90 mins in the team with exactly 3. The shots market is usually the best angle with Cunha but against Arsenal then Wolves’ chances might be more limited so it probably makes sense to take the Brazilian just to have one or more shots on target.

This is something he has managed in all but 5 Premier League appearances this season. In recent matches the only game out of the last 8 in which he hasn’t had a SOT was away to Spurs.

Cunha is the heartbeat of the team offensively and is a huge threat. He’s also on free kick and potentially penalty duty which is an added advantage when backing him.
