Arsenal visit Wolves on Tuesday evening as a full schedule of midweek Premier League action gets under way.

The Gunners head into the Molineux clash on the back of last weekend's home draw with Manchester United, which saw them move onto 31 points - only eight outside the top four.

In fact, a win against Nuno's struggling side this evening would move Arsenal up into sixth - ahead of local rivals Tottenham and also Chelsea.

With much riding on the north Londoners continuing their fine run of form, which sees them unbeaten in the Premier League since December 19, Mikel Arteta has brought Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang back into the squad after his absence for personal reasons.

He only makes the bench, however, along with January loan signing Martin Odegaard.

There is a return to the starting line-up for Bukayo Saka, though, who missed the weekend draw with United entirely.
