Following their disappointing exit from the Champions League, Arsenal will be looking to make amends in the Premier League and chase down leaders Manchester City.
After the Gunners lost to Aston Villa last time out, City gained a two-point advantage at the top of the table with a dominant 5-1 win over Luton Town. Liverpool sit level on points with Arsenal following their own defeat to Crystal Palace. Mikel Arteta’s next challenge will be against Wolves, who are looking to break into the top ten.
As the two sides prepare to lock horns at Molineux on Saturday, we’ve rounded up the latest injury news and listed the players from both clubs who are either sidelined and unable to participate or have a question mark above their fitness levels right now.
1. Out: Jurrien Timber
Timber's recovery from his ACL injury is almost complete as Arteta has said he has 'done everything in training' and the focus is now on getting him match fit. A return date is still not yet in sight despite the positive updates.
2. Out: Pedro Neto
Neto is currently ruled out with a hamstring problem and is not expected to return until May.
3. Out: Craig Dawson
O'Neil recently reported that Dawson has been 'playing through some pain' and he has not featured since March. No return date has been specified yet.
4. Doubt: Rayan Aït-Nouri
Aït-Nouri remains a doubt for Wolves as Gary O'Neil had envisaged him taking part in their previous clash with Nottingham Forest but it did not happen.
