Arsenal will host Wolves at Emirates for their Premier League second leg rescheduled tie after winning the reverse fixture 1-0 at Molineux Stadium. Arsenal have received good news after the Premier League officially appointed Referee Martin Atkinson to officiate the Thursday clash at Emirates Stadium. Arsenal have won most of their home fixtures officiated by Referee Atikinson with clean sheets in the Premier League hence likely to cruise past Wolves.

The Gunners will be welcoming back Brazillian Forward Gabriel Martinelli who was previously suspended due to a red card shown while playing against Wolves. Martinelli and Pepe are likely to break into Arsenal starting XI alongside Eddie Nkeitah as Arteta looks forward to reshuffle the squad. Arsenal Manager Mikel Arteta hinted that Martin Odegaard could be the next permanent Arsenal Captain after Granit Xhaka turned down the armband over the weekend in their 2-1 victory against Brentford where Bukayo Saka & Emile Smith Rowe scored.
