Arsenal would be aiming to keep their unbeaten run going when they face a slightly wobbly Wolves team at the Emirates Stadium this Sunday.

Team News

Danny Welbeck suffered a horrible ankle injury during a Europa League game against Sporting. Therefore, he will be out for the foreseeable future. Stephan Lichtsteiner also had a hamstring problem on Thursday, while Nacho Monreal recovers from a similar injury. Mohamed Elneny is still out and may come back after the international break.

Formation – 4-2-3-1

Manager – Unai Emery

Bernd Leno (GK)

The German has taken over the first-choice role in the goalkeeping department. He has had to wait for that but for the way Emery wants his team to play, Leno is an ideal man between the sticks.

Hector Bellerin (RB)

The Spaniard just got himself fit for the Liverpool game last week and was rested for the Europa game. Expect him to start on Sunday.

Rob Holding (CB)

The youngster has been an impressive presence at the back for the Gunners. On current form, he should start most games.

Shkodran Mustafi (CB)

The German was colossal against Liverpool last Saturday, hence, Emery might be tempted to continue with him alongside Holding.

Sead Kolasinac (LB)

Kolasinac came back from injury last week and did well against Jurgen Klopp’s men. He is almost certain to start again on Sunday.

Lucas Torreira (CM)

The Uruguayan has been one of the impressive players in midfield. He should every game unless there is an injury issue.

Granit Xhaka (CM)

The Swiss international got a game off for the Europa League. Hence, he is fresh enough to feature this weekend.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (LW)

The Gabonese came off the bench earlier than expected against Sporting but he is almost certain to start on the left wing against Wolves.

Mesut Ozil (CAM)

Ozil got a game off on Thursday, probably to get a rest and be fresh to fire against the Old Gold.

Alex Iwobi (RW)

On current form, Iwobi should be starting ahead of Henrikh Mkhitaryan. The latter has struggled to find his feet this season.

Alexandre Lacazette (ST)

The Frenchman scored a great goal against Liverpool to earn a deserved point last week. He is been in good form and Wolves defenders will be wary of him.

Click here to Join the whatsapp group for all ARSENAL NEWS Unai Emery admitted that he did not know whether Mesut Ozil had even attended Arsenal's 4-2 win over Tottenham Hotspur yesterday, as the German midfielder missed out with an apparent back injury. Ozil was not in the Arsenal squad, having missed the trip to Ukraine this week, and it was claimed by Arsenal sources that he had suffered a recurrence of a back spasm. Ozil had missed Arsenal's game at Fulham on October 7 because of a similar complaint. This fresh back spasm had occurred just days after Ozil was left as an unused substitute for the 2-1 win at Bournemouth. Asked repeatedly about Ozil in his post-match press conference at the Emirates, Emery said that Ozil "has back ache" when asked why he could not play. Asked when Ozil suffered this problem, Emery said that he "did not know". Then asked whether Ozil had even attended the game at the Emirates, Emery said he "did not know". Now fo...

Ex-gov Attah Nigeria'll break up unless. ........,

governor of Akwa Ibom State and co-chairman of Pan Niger Delta Forum (PANDEF), Obong Victor Attah, has warned that Nigeria may break up unless fiscal federalism is instituted. Attah, who spoke on a private radio station in Uyo, the state capital, yesterday, said the only respite Nigeria has against its imminent disintegration would be to return to fiscal federalism as that remains the only solution to myriad of socio-economic problems besetting the nation. “Under a fiscal regime, as it were in the days of the regions, states, would contribute 50 percent of their resources to the central government and use 50 percent for development of their territories, such that multiplier effects would douse 90 percent of tensions in the country.” Attah, who was governor between 1999 and 2017, said Nigeria would have achieved more significant development if true fiscal federalism had been put in place, instead of what is obtained at the moment. The former chairman of the Nigeria Governors’ Forum d...

2019-ELECTION:This is the reason why Buhari will be re-elected – Kogi Gov. Bello

Image
The Kogi State Governor, Alh. Yahaya Bello has expressed confidence that the performance of President Muhammadu Buhari will guarantee his re-election in 2019, saying the “real voters are behind the President”. Bello stated this in a statement through his Director General of Media and Publicity, Kingsley Fanwo in Lokoja on Sunday. He said the President remains the most popular political figure among the masses of Nigeria. “Two classes determine the electoral success of any candidate in Nigeria. The powerful elites and the masses. In 2015, the masses took over by trooping to the polling units massively to elect Africa’s most popular and most trusted political figure, President Muhammadu Buhari. “Many of us who supported him actually supported his incorruptible and disciplined personality. I founded the Kogi Youth Arise Group with like minds to ensure the victory of the President in Kogi State. President Buhari is a phenomenal leader who truly loves Nigeria. “Almost three years into h...
