Wolves v Arsenal predictions: Free tips and a massive 78/1 bet builder for Molineux clash

Declan Rice of Arsenal

Arsenal travel to lowly Wolves on Saturday afternoon looking to bounce back from their latest Premier League stumble on January 25 (1500 GMT).

If Arsenal don’t start stringing together some Premier League wins, they’ll need binoculars to see Liverpool off in the distance at the top of the Premier League.

Another Premier League draw, this time against Aston Villa last weekend, was their second in three games and all it served to do was to allow Liverpool to extend their big gap at the top of the table.

The Gunners need Liverpool to start slipping up, but first they have to get their own house in order and they can definitely start that against struggling Wolves on Saturday afternoon.

We’ve picked out a huge nine-leg bet builder for the Molineux match that currently comes in at a huge 78/1 at the time of writing.

Obviously nine legs in a bet builder is a big ask but we think this one has a fighting chance.

If you are not feeling that brave there’s a couple of options to remove a few legs, but obviously you’ll lower those odds.


Wolves vs vs Arsenal bet builder


Arsenal -1 handicap 5/4

Both teams to score yes - 3/4

Over 2.5 goals - 13/20

Gabriel one or more shot - 2/5

Rice one or more shot - 1/6

Strand Larsen one or more foul - 1/7

Home keeper saves 2 or more - 1/14

Semedo card - 10/3

Martinelli foul - 8/15

 

Arsenal -1 handicap

Wolves do not like this fixture. They’ve lost to Arsenal in the last seven consecutive meetings and only managed to score two goals.

Arsenal have also won eight of their last ten at Molineux, which is their highest win rate against any opponent in at least five away games.

Wolves also are enjoying facing anyone in the higher reaches of the table, they’ve lost 10 of 11 matches with the top eight, all six of those at home.

Odds for a straight Arsenal win are incredibly skinny, as you’d expect, so you’ll get more value with an Arsenal -1 handicap.

Taking off the -1 handicap and replacing it with a straight Arsenal win, will drop the odds of this bet builder to around 8/1.

 

Both teams to score yes

In any other season we’d have probably gone ‘no’ with this one, as Wolves haven’t been great at breaching the Arsenal defence, see above.

But this season they are a different animal and have plenty of goals in them, 32 goals in 22 matches, even if they are not turning them into results.

Arsenal have not been as solid at the back as you’d expect, having conceded in nine of their 11 league matches on the road. Wolves should be able to get at least one.

The Gunners usually always score against Wolves, they last drew a blank in 1979, 34 matches ago. Mikel Arteta wasn’t even born.


Over 2.5 goals

This one rolls into the both teams to score vibe, but with added pizzazz.

For Wolves it has landed in their last five games across all competitions, three of those games were against teams in the top six.

In fact all of Wolves’ home matches against top-half opposition have featured at least three goals…just a reminder Manchester United aren’t in the top half.

Arsenal are the best team at scoring off corners (10) and Wolves are the worst at defending them (17), so that means goals in my book.

 

Gabriel - one or more shot

Which brings us nicely on to Gabriel, who has been a regular winning leg in our Arsenal bet builders this season.

Corners are going to be a rich source of Arsenal’s attacking thrust and that brings Gabriel into sharp focus.

He’s had 16 shot attempts from set pieces in the Premier League and had three shots against Dinamo Zagreb in midweek, so he’ll be keen to add to his tally of five goals this season.

 

Declan Rice - one or more shot

Declan Rice has his shooting boots on at the moment, he scored early in the midweek win over Zagreb and had four shots in that game.

He’s also had at least one shot in the last three Premier League games, and averages 1.2 shots per game this season.


Strand Larsen at least one foul

Larsen is a big unit and battering ram type strikers like him will always scoop up a fair amount of fouls.

He’s picked five in the last two games, to add to the 30 he has already chalked up this season.

He committed 64 fouls at Celta Vigo last season, so he’s got plenty more in the tank.

 

Home keeper two or more saves

Arsenal will bombard the Wolves goal, so actually Jose Sa having just two or more saves might be undercooking it a little.

This bet has landed in 12 of the 15 Premier League games Sa has played in this season.

 

Semedo booking

Nelson Semedo has collected the most Wolves yellows this season with seven, and is also in the Premier League top ten for cards.

He collected two of those in the last three games and is likely to have a combination of Martinelli and Trossard giving him the run around down his right side.

He commits 1.4 fouls a game and, though it’s a risky play in the acca, a yellow really super charges the odds.

If you are not feeling that brave, removing Semedo booking will still give you odds of 17/1, which are not to be sniffed at.

 

Martinelli at least one foul

Let’s finish with one that has beef. The last time Michael Oliver was the ref of this game back in 2022, he sent off Martinelli for two very quick and rather foolish yellows.

Martinelli hasn’t been that naughty this season, compared to others, but as we are predicting flash points down the Arsenal left, with Semedo on the right, the Brazilian might seek out retribution.
