Dec 27 Preview: Arsenal vs. Wolverhampton Wanderers

Wolverhampton Wanderers travel to Arsenal having not scored away from home against the Gunners since 1984.

It is even longer since Wolves took all three points away from North London, namely 1979.

Manager Mick McCarthy has no new injuries worries for the trip, although David Edwards and Jody Craddock will face late fitness tests.

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has a host of injuries to contend with as Johan Djourou, Kieran Gibbs, Abou Diaby, Carl Jenkinson, Jack Wilshere, Andre Santos, Lukasz Fabianski and Vito Mannone all remain sidelined.

Young Spanish midfielder Francis Coquelin is expected to continue in the unfamiliar role of right full-back.

Current form:

Arsenal: WDWWLW
Wolves: LLWLLD

Sports Mole says: 2-0
