Having scored in 33 consecutive matches against this opposition, Arsenal will feel rather comfortable with the idea of opening their 2024/25 account with a goal or two on home soil.
Wolves found the net at the Emirates in this fixture last term, adding that late Matheus Cunha strike to a host of other goals on away trips including visits to Brighton, Chelsea, Tottenham and Manchester City.
Since returning to the division in 2018, the Old Gold have flexed their muscles against some of the division's best, often scoring in these matches and sometimes even pulling out a shock result or two.
That habit has continued in Gary O'Neil's tenure, with the Wanderers also netting in head-to-heads with Liverpool, Newcastle and Aston Villa last term.
The Gunners have recorded opening day victories against both Crystal Palace and Nottingham Forest over the last two seasons, and with a fully fit attacking contingent to draw from, they should be quite confident with starting in this same fashion on Saturday; especially against Wolves, who they did the double over last campaign.
Bukayo Saka's figures for goal contributions are increasing year-over-year at Arsenal, with last season's 16 goals and 9 assists in the Premier League his best tally yet.
He opened the scoring in last year's 2-1 win over Wolves at this ground, and with six players shorter in price than him to score, we're happy to side with the dynamite winger finding the net this weekend.
Finally, Hwang had a phenomenal start to last season, bulging the net six times in his opening 10 league games.
The South Korean ended with double that figure across 29 appearances, often playing second fiddle to Matheus Cunha, who will likely have an even greater role in this Wolves team following the departure of Pedro Neto to Chelsea.
All we need from Hwang is a shot on target in the capital, which after meeting this line in four of his last five games at the tail end of the season, including trips to the Etihad and Anfield, suggests he is perfectly capable of at least testing David Raya.
