Wolves v Arsenal Betting Preview

Written by Yaro Pavlenko

Spreadex Sports previews the upcoming 2025/26 Premier League fixture between Wolves and Arsenal. This fixture sees the contrast of the league leaders taking on the league's bottom side. 

Relegation to the Championship looks almost guaranteed for the home side, so pride will be the main thing at stake and the chance to become the first bottom side to beat the top side in the Premier League since February 2011. Meanwhile, a win for Arsenal will stretch their gap at the top to seven points before nearest challengers Man City next play.

Who will grab the points in this midweek Molineux clash?

Wolves v Arsenal betting FORM

An utterly miserable domestic season for Wolves has had few if any bright sparks, but the fact that they claimed their lone league win of the season here at Molineux and come into this one with some confidence and morale following progressing in the FA Cup may give them a boost in what otherwise looks like a daunting assignment against the rampaging Gunners.

Mikel Arteta's side are still fighting on four fronts after also progressing in the FA Cup last weekend, and will see this as an excellent opportunity to increase their buffer at the top of the league and pile the pressure on to Man City, who may be seven points adrift when they next play on Saturday. Interestingly though, the Gunners had a much harder time than expected in the reverse fixture against Wolves as two own goals secured the win.

WHAT ARE THE BEST ODDS ON Wolves v Arsenal?

The Spreadex Sports fixed odds Match Odds betting prices have Arsenal as very heavy 3/10 favourites to secure the victory while our 2 Up early pay out market, which pays out when a team goes two goals up, has the Gunners at 2/7.

Wolves meanwhile are heavy underdogs and are available at 17/2 for a shock victory (15/2 on our 2 Up market), with the draw at 24/5.

The Gunners have won nine of the last ten meetings (one defeat), showing their dominance in this H2H.

Only four of the last ten meetings have seen Both Teams Scoring, and you can back Both to Score - No at 8/13 here. Only five of the last ten meetings have seen Over 2.5 goals - you can back that here at 8/11. Only once in the last ten has this matchup seen over 3.5 goals, which was a 5-0 win for Arsenal in 2023. That scoreline can be backed here at 20/1.

Wolves v Arsenal FOOTBALL SPREAD BETTING PRICES

Our football spread betting prices have the Goal Supremacy as Arsenal/Wolves (h) 1.65 - 1.85. This means if Arsenal won 5-1 (or by any other four goal margin), a 'buy' bet at 1.85 would mean a return of 2.05x your initial stake.

However, if you bought at 1.85 in Arsenal's favour and the match ended goalless, you would lose 1.85x your stake. Or, if Wolves were to grab a 1-0 (or any other one goal margin) win, the market would settle negatively at -1 and a buy at 1.85 would result in a loss of 2.85x your opening stake.

You can calculate various make-ups by using our handy spread betting calculator, found here.

Our spread betting Total Goals line is 2.9 - 3.1. So a 3.1 'buy' bet would need at least four goals to be scored in the match to start turning a profit. Conversely, a 2.9 sell bet would need less than three goals to be scored in the match to turn a profit.

Remember that with spread betting, get the bet wrong and losses can exceed your stake/deposit. E.g. a 3.1 'buy' Total Goals bet would lose 3.1x your opening stake if the match ended 0-0, and so on.
