Arsenal have the opportunity to move into the top four if they can manage a win or a draw against Wolves at Molienux on Wednesday night.
However, the Gunners will need to put in a much better display than their last game, which saw them lose 3-2 at home to Crystal Palace.

LATEST PREMIER LEAGUE NEWS
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang was not present for Arsenal’s final training session before the match but it’s been revealed this was a change Emery was forced to make.
Shortly after the team announced, it was revealed Aubameyang, who scored during the defeat to Palace, is absent due to a small sinus procedure.
He will be assessed for the London side’s trip to Leicester on Sunday but the focus will very much be on Wolves for now.
One notable exclusion from the list is Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang who has scored 19 goals for Arsenal in the league this season. The Gabonese international star found the back of the net for his 19th goal at the weekend during the home defeat to Crystal Palace. Aubameyang scored one of the goals for the Gunners who were beaten 3-2 by the Eagles.
Mustafi has been replaced by Sokratis Papastathopolous, who returns from his domestic suspension. Another notable change sees Alex Iwobi come in for Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, who is not in the squad due to a small sinus procedure.

Selling him frees up substantial transfer funds and room on the wage bill to fill all the gaping holes on the team (center half, left back, box to box mid, central mid, wide attacker).
