Wolves will be looking to strike a potentially decisive blow to Arsenal’s European ambitions when the sides meet at Molineux on Saturday.
Nuno Espirito Santo’s men are six points clear of their guests in sixth place, having won each of their three Premier League games since play was resumed.
The home side have a fully fit and available squad to choose from, with Romain Saiss avoiding a two-match ban after evading a 10th yellow card of the season by the 32-game cut-off point.

Lucas Torreira and Mesut Ozil will face late fitness tests, while Calum Chambers remains short of fitness despite returning to training. Bernd Leno, Pablo Mari and Gabriel Martinelli are ruled out.
Although they have got back on track with comfortable wins over Southampton and rock bottom Norwich, Mikel Arteta’s men face a much greater challenge in their trip to the Black Country.
Only Liverpool have beaten Wolves in their last 11 league matches, while they come into this clash with seven clean sheets in eight league fixtures under their belts.
