ARS Vs WOL Fantasy Team Probable Playing 11 And Match Report: Two languid attacking sides see their goal scoring dilemma refrain them from unlocking the true potential of their side
Things are just going from bad to worse for Arteta at the moment. After an initial strong burst to life at the club, he’s now gradually becoming more acclimatised with the mammoth task he has on his hands as he looks to overhaul an Arsenal side which has underwhelmed for years now.
When Arteta had been asked to take over the reigns at Arsenal, it was clear that the defensive side of the game needing massively working on. A string of fresh signings coupled with Arteta’s tutelage managed to successfully plug the holes which had seen the side’s defence take on the identity of a sinking ship.
However, where the defence grew in stature, the attacking side of the game calamitously dipped and waned. Taking on the shape of an attacking setup which has absolutely no wind in its sails, Arsenal have slumped into 12th place in the league with the side winning just the lone fixture in their last five matches.
ARS Vs WOL Fantasy Probable Winner
Arsenal aren’t the only club with attacking problems this season. Wolverhampton are in an akin position, a side which is failing to emulate the attacking potential which saw it emerge as a staunch setup in the league.
When these two lacklustre attacks take on each other, we envisage neither side having enough to fathom together a goal with the contest curtailing in a draw.

Goal-Keeper
Our set of picks for the impending tie begin the selection of Arsenal’s Bernd Leno. An integral part of Arsenal’s new found defensive resillinace and grit, the goal-keeper has across the course of the last year become one of the safest pairs of hands.
Defenders
Where Leno was asked to wage a lone battle previously, this season he’s found much needed support in the form of CB Gabriel Magalhaes. He alongside Kieran Tierney have overhauled Arsenal’s leaky defence, adding wind to the sails of the side’s defensive setup to see the club emerge as a disciplined and well endowed backline.
Wolverhampton on the other hand will see us opt for a duo of picks as well. With Arsenal scoring on a measly nine occasions and Wolverhampton showcasing their defensive credentials in abundance, a cleansheet could easily be on the cards for the visitors.
It’s a narrative which will see us immerse in the services of Nelson Semedo and Rayan Ait Nouri.
Midfielders
Rescuing a point for Wolverhampton in their contest against Southampton, Pedro Neto latched onto a Jimenez strike to restore parity in the tie for his club. Ruben Neves will be his partner for the day, a player who has across the years hammered down his spot in the club’s formation owing to his ball handling abilities.
Arsenal will see us rope in Dani Ceballos owing to his ability to turnover possession from attack to defence.
Strikers
Pierre Emerick-Aubameyang’s downtick in form has had a clear and telling impact on Arsenal’s attacking form. His lack of goals have left the club lacking of attacking acumen but despite that, the two strikes he has see us opt for him.
Playing a hand in five goals, Wolverhampton’s top scorer, Raul Jimenez lines up for us alongside Daniel Podence who has the two assists.
Captain And Vice-Captain
The likelihood of an Arsenal cleansheet sees us make Gabriel our side’s captain while Semedo is the vice-captain.
