Tale of the game
This is Arsène Wenger’s 550th Premier League game but he will not need reminding that his side have squandered points against West Brom, West Ham and Newcastle at the Emirates.

However, recent history suggests they will avoid any shock against Wolves.

In all competitions, Arsenal have won their last 11 games against Wolves. In that spell, Arsenal have scored 29 goals and conceded just seven.

They are also unbeaten in their last 16 meetings while Wolves have won just eight times in 47 visits.

Wolves, who need four goals for 100 in the Premier League, last beat Arsenal in September 1979, at Highbury, while the last success at Molineux against them was in October 1978.

And Mick McCarthy’s men arrive with the worst away record in the country.

In 12 away games they have lost 10 and won once, taking four points from a possible 36, while scoring just nine away goals.

Only League Two team Burton have as few away goals but they have six points on their travels.

On Saturday Wolves did Arsenal a favour by ending Manchester United’s unbeaten record with Kevin Doyle scoring the 700th goal of the Premier League this season, in Saturday’s 2-1 win.

On Saturday, meanwhile, Arsenal gave away a four-goal lead and lost defender Johan Djourou wit a knee injury and he is out.

So too is fellow defender Thomas Vermaelen (Achilles) but Robin Van Persie, who has had flu, should be fit, while Arsenal also test Alex Song (thigh).

But Denilson and Samir Nasri are likely to be absent with hamstring strains while Lukasz Fabianski (shoulder) and Emmanuel Frimpong (knee) remain sidelined.

This season: Wolves 0 Arsenal 2

Last season: Wolves 1 Arsenal 4, Arsenal 1 Wolves 0.

Stat of the game: Arsenal have received six Premier League red cards this season. Only once before have they had more in a single campaign (seven in the 1998-99 campaign). The most recent – Abou Diaby – was the 82nd red card, in all competitions, during Arsène Wenger’s reign as manager.

Match

D Gunners are gunning there ar.s down!

It'll be a good Afternoon

Mick McCarthy's boys are very physical and have proved to be good with set pieces and aerial balls,I just pray that daft defender Squilacci does not smell action today and the rest of the season

mukina2:

Arsenal (Possible, 4-1-4-1): Szczesny; Sagna, Koscielny, Squillaci, Clichy; Song, Walcott, Wilshere, Fabregas, Arshavin; Van Persie.

^^^^
No nothing dear,I just can't keep the memories of some of his costly actions/inactions of recent out of me mind
That Thiote's goal,why didn't he fling himself in the path of that shot,take a look at it again,he was just jogging lackadaisically towards the ball as it sailed towards Tiote's and the Ivorian was lining for the scorcher

^^^^
Again,it's clear Diaby is a hot-temperred goat,but if Djourou had not unfortunately but necessarily been replaced by Suillaci,we would not have been on the back foot for such long spell that allowed newcastle to snatch a draw at St James Pk,making us drop TWO BIG point

This is how the team shoots themselves in the foot with all these missed chances! For once, blaze the net u muppets!

Our startin line-up today is our best line-up (I know u r thinkin Nasri,u r right) . If they all keep their individual form as showed today,we have a big chance to beat barcelona when we meet them. I say that without any fear.
To those who underated RVP,look at this stats this season to see he shitz on ALL strikers in ENGLAND atm.
