After achieving a double victory against Arsenal in the 2020-21 season, Wolves have since suffered nine consecutive Premier League defeats when facing the Gunners.
Arsenal boasts an impressive away record against Wolves in the Premier League, securing nine wins out of 11 matches (with only two losses). This 82% win rate is their best against any opponent they’ve encountered 10 or more times away from home.
Arsenal has found the back of the net in their last 36 competitive fixtures against Wolves. This impressive scoring streak is surpassed in English football history only by Wrexham’s 49-game run against Darlington from 1929 to 1961.
In their previous 2-1 victory over Wolves, both of Arsenal’s goals were own goals. Only three teams in Premier League history have benefited from three own goals against a single opponent in one season: Charlton vs Sunderland (2002-03), Arsenal vs Southampton (2012-13), and Southampton vs Sunderland (2014-15).
Arsenal has an outstanding record against teams in the relegation zone, winning their last 14 Premier League encounters with a dominant aggregate score of 40-4. This marks the longest such winning streak against bottom-three (or bottom-four in 1994-95) teams in the competition’s history.
This season, Arsenal maintains a perfect record on Wednesdays, winning all eight of their matches across all competitions. The only Premier League team to boast a superior 100% win rate on a specific day over a single season was Manchester City in 2020-21, who won all 15 of their Wednesday games.
Wolves have a challenging history against teams at the top of the Premier League table, losing 16 of their 20 such matches (with three wins and one draw). Their victories include beating Manchester United in January 2004 and February 2011, and Manchester City in September 2023. Notably, both wins against Manchester United occurred while Wolves themselves were at the bottom of the league.
This season, Wolves have struggled significantly at home in the Premier League, suffering 10 losses in just 13 games (one win, two draws). Only Southampton last season reached 10 home defeats more quickly (in 12 games). Historically, Wolves have only recorded more home losses in a top-flight season twice: 11 in 1964-65 and 13 in 2011-12.
Wolves have struggled to find the net this season, failing to score in 14 Premier League games, more than any other team. Conversely, Arsenal boasts the league’s best defensive record, having kept 13 clean sheets.
Noni Madueke, who has scored in his last two away league games, has found the net more times against Wolves in the Premier League than against any other team. His four goals against them represent 27% of his total 15 goals in the competition.
