All the early team and injury news updates ahead of Arsenal v Wolves in the Premier League.
Wolverhampton Wanderers are in Premier League action for the final time this season as they take on second-placed Arsenal on Sunday afternoon. Having already said their farewells to Molineux with a 1-1 draw against Everton last weekend, Julen Lopetegui’s side will be eager to end the campaign on a high.
Wolves may be home and dry when it comes to the relegation battle but they still have something to play for as 12th spot is up for grabs. Three points at the Emirates Stadium would help Wanderers leapfrog Chelsea and claim some extra prize money, as long as the Blues lose to Newcastle United.
The Gunners, meanwhile, having nothing more to gain as they are guaranteed to finish ahead of Manchester United and behind Manchester City. Lopetegui’s men have the advantage when it comes to the team news as well with just two players expected to be sidelined the game, whereas Arsenal have plenty missing. See below.

3. Chiquinho - ruled out
Hasn’t played under Julen Lopetegui due to a very long-term knee injury and he remains sidelined. He’s now back training with the group, though, and could well be back for the start of pre-season.

Picked up a calf issue recently and will miss the final game of the season. It’s not serious, though, and he will be back well in time for pre-season.
