Join us for live coverage of the Premier League clash between Wolves and Arsenal at Molineux. Arsenal will go five points clear at the top of the table with victory here after Man City's shock defeat earlier.
FT: Wolves 0-2 Arsenal! All over at Molineux and Arsenal go five clear at the top. After a goalless first half, Odegaard struck in the 55th and 75th minutes to give Arsenal the points. Wolves had chances through Guedes in the first half and sub Podence in the second, but they never really looked like getting back into it. Thanks for joining us and see you again soon!
Gabriel has his name taken after bringing down Traore just to the side of the Arsenal box.

HT: Wolves 0-0 Arsenal! Half-time at Molineux and Arsenal have dominated possession, but been frustrated by a solid Wolves defence.

No shots on target though. Back shortly!
