Arsenal v Wolves - Preview and possible lineups

Arsenal: Laurent Koscielny is back in full training, but he is not yeat ready to return to action after recovering from his Achilles rupture. Mohamed Elneny remains out for a further week with a thigh injury, whilst Konstantinos Mavropanos continues his rehabilitation from a long-term groin injury. Sokratis Papastathopoulos has returned to full training and is available, while Nacho Monreal is also set to return. Danny Welbeck was stretchered off during the Europa League draw with Sporting CP on Thursday and ​is in hospital being assessed after a suspected ankle break.

Wolves: Wolves are monitoring the fitness of Diogo Jota ahead of their trip to north London this weekend, after the winger was ruled out of last week’s defeat to ​Tottenham with an unconfirmed injury problem. Ivan Cavaleiro is set to continue in Jota’s place as he did last time out, with Nuno Espirito Santo having no further injury concerns.

Unai Emery on opposite number Nuno Espirito Santo:

“He’s a good coach with experience. Every coach from Portugal, in my experience, is very competitive and they are very organised coaches. They [Sporting] have discipline but also talented players, like at Wolves."

Nuno Espirito Santo on his side's slump of form:

"You can't get results if you don't perform - that's definite. That's what I think, that's what I defend and this is how we work. We work to perform better, we work to perform well and we work to play the way we want to play.

"We do the things we want to do and then we try to achieve the result, but we don't think about the result first. No matter what - perform well, do your task and try to win."
