The Arsenal squad in training ahead of the game against Wolves

While the temperatures across the country have plummeted, our squad have been warming up for Saturday’s clash against Wolves at London Colney, and you can see our best training photos below.

Mikel Arteta and his players wrapped up warm as they took part in their final training session before the visit of the Molineux side, as we aim to move four points clear at the top of the Premier League with our closest rivals playing after our match.

The team quickly adapted to the chilly conditions at Colney to make their final adjustments ahead of the encounter with Gary O’Neil’s men, and our club photographer Stuart MacFarlane also braced the cold to grab the best shots, which you can see below

PRE-MATCH REPORT

Preview: Arsenal v Wolverhampton

Arsenal v Wolverhampton Wanderers

With our nearest rivals all playing on Sunday, we’ll look to extend our lead at the top of the table when Wolves head to Emirates Stadium for a traditional Saturday 3pm kick-off.

Our last-gasp win over Brentford plus the 6-0 thrashing of Lens in midweek means there’s plenty of momentum behind us, while we have won all of our last four meetings with the Molineux side, including a 5-0 triumph when we last locked horns back in May.

However we’ll need to be wary of Gary O’Neil’s new-look side who have already upset a league leader this season, when they beat Manchester City 2-1 in September, and have recorded good results against the likes of Newcastle United and Tottenham Hotspur already this term.

O’Neil left VAR-y unhappy

Our opponents arrive in north London 12th in the table, but that doesn’t tell the whole story. A host of questionable VAR decisions have blighted their season, with O’Neil claiming bad decisions in matches against Manchester United, Luton Town, Newcastle and Sheffield United have cost his team seven points.

Then on Monday night, Fulham were awarded two controversial VAR-assisted penalties to run out 3-2 victors over the Old Gold, leaving them entrenched in mid-table despite impressing many with their positive football this term.

Wolves have scored in each of their last 12 Premier League games, however have kept just one clean sheet this season so far which came away at Everton – one of two wins on the road with the other coming at O’Neil’s former club Bournemouth.
