Only Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah (11) has scored or assisted a goal in more different Premier League games than Hwang (nine) this season. Hwang hasn’t scored or assisted more than once in any game so far, with no player having more goal involvements without doing so more than once in a game (nine, the same as Arsenal’s Saka).

Wolves now look to build down their right as Semedo offloads to Hwang, but the South Korean’s heavy touch goes all the way behind for an Arsenal goal-kick.

Arsenal are looking to settle into their rhythm, keeping possession patiently in midfield. It looks like a 5-3-2 for Wolves without the ball, with Bellegarde dropping in as a third midfielder. Odegaard looks for the run of Jesus, but his pass is overhit and goes out for a goal-kick.

It will be fascinating to see how Wolves go about keeping Arsenal at bay without their first-choice midfield pairing here. With Gomes and Lemina banned, Traore and Doyle have a huge chance to impress in the centre of the park. The former tries to break through the middle immediately, but he runs into traffic around halfway.

Arsenal have won their last four Premier League games against Wolves, having won just two of their previous eight against them (three draws, three defeats). Does another difficult outing await Wolves at the Emirates? The teams are out on the pitch, and kick-off is coming up shortly!

O’Neil, meanwhile, makes four changes to the Wolves side which started at Craven Cottage. Three are enforced with Rayan Ait-Nouri injured and both Gomes and Lemina serving one-match bans after accumulating five yellow cards, so Hugo Bueno, Traore and Doyle come in. Dawson is back from his own suspension in defence, replacing Santiago Bueno, but winger Pedro Neto is still sidelined. Chirewa, Whittingham and Hubner take their places on a young visiting bench.

Arteta makes just one change to the Arsenal team which hammered Lens on Wednesday. Havertz – who opened the scoring in that game after netting a late winner at Brentford last Saturday – drops to the bench as Trossard comes in. Fabio Vieira, Thomas Partey, Emile Smith Rowe and Jurrien Timber are the Gunners’ only absentees for this one.
