Arsenal cannot afford to lose further ground in their bid to haul in Liverpool in the title race, while Wolves desperately need points in their battle against relegation.

Alongside the defeat to Ruben Amorim's visitors, Arteta also lost Gabriel Jesus to a first-half knee injury, with the Brazilian facing an extended spell on the sidelines. Jesus will join Bukayo Saka on the list of absentees with Ben White, Ethan Nwaneri and Takehiro Tomiyasu all at least another two weeks away from a return.

Arsenal have Jurrien Timber fit to start for tonight’s Premier League clash with Tottenham, with Raheem Sterling also in the side. Timber came off during Sunday’s defeat to Manchester United in the FA Cup, but Mikel Arteta has confirmed that was due to cramp, as it was with midfielder Jorginho.

This north London derby should be a tasty affair with both Arsenal and Tottenham looking to bounce back from some poor results as Mikel Arteta’s men welcome Ange Postecoglou’s side to the Emirates Stadium.

Arsenal are still battling a number of injury issues as they prepare to return to Premier League action against Wolves this weekend. After Saturday’s 2-2 draw with Aston Villa, the Gunners returned to winning ways with a comfortable victory over Dinamo Zagreb in the Champions League on Wednesday night.
