32'
Arsenal fans, close your eyes...
30'
And so with 30 minutes on the clock, Wolves lead. And they deserve to. Arsenal have been sloppy in possession, Wolves have been threatening on the counter. It's an entertaining game, but Emery won't be enjoying it.
27'
DESPERATE DEFENDING! Cavaleiro runs at the retreating Arsenal back-line, spreading the ball wide to Moutinho on the right. The Portuguese's cross is inviting but Holding is in the right place to clear with a diving header - Costa was waiting to pounce behind him.
25'
SAVE! Leno has to be alert to push away Costa's well-struck effort from the edge of the box. Wolves are looking really threatening on the break.

CHANCE! And now Wolves spring a rapid counter-attack. Costa leads the charge, is allowed to check inside and shoot, forcing Leno into a good save. The Arsenal goalkeeper then gathers himself quickly to smother the loose ball before Jimenez can pounce.
22'
SHOTS! Lacazette receives the ball in space at the back post and tries to shoot from a tight angle, but Coady is there to make the block. And then Iwobi sees his effort from the edge of the box charged down. Wolves are defending for their lives.
21'
20'
Wolves are full of confidence now, but Neves will have angered his team mates with his latest strike. He attempts his luck from 30 yards, it's never going close and Leno can watch it harmlessly float it into the stands.
17'
Here comes Arsenal, desperate to find an immediate leveller. Ozil picks up the ball on the left flank, he has options in the middle but puts too much zip on his cross.
15'
It has been a desperately poor start by the Gunners and now they find themselves a goal down.

GOAL! Arsenal 0-1 Wolves
What is Xhaka doing? He dummies a pass in midfield, Cavaleiro steals in, eats up some ground in the centre and plays a neat one-two with Jimenez before coolly slotting home the opener.

Wolves on the attack. Jonny searches for the run of Jimenez but it's slightly over-cooked.
7'
NO PENALTY! With beautiful close control Iwobi drives forward with pace, bursting into the Wolves box with intent. However, in comes Bennett who shoulders the Arsenal forward to the ground, prompting calls for a penalty from the home side. The referee Stuart Attwell is well placed and signals play on.
4'
Arsenal can close the gap on fourth-placed and arch-rivals Spurs to a single point with a victory this afternoon, but it has been a low-key start by the hosts.
2'
The Gunners are unbeaten in 19 games against Wolves - can they continue that impressive run?

KICK-OFF! Arsenal get the game underway.
16:27
A poppy wreath is laid down in the middle of the pitch and now it's time for a minute's silence.
16:24
Meanwhile, having made a bright start to their Premier League campaign, new boys Wolves have suffered three consecutive defeats.
Espirito Santo: "We're not in the best moment but we have to react to it.
"We reacted well from the bad performance against Watford, we didn't achieve the result against Brighton or Tottenham but we performed well.
"We don't think about the result first - no matter what, it's perform well, do your tasks and try to win."
16:22
Arsenal are hoping to extend their run of unbeaten games to 16 this afternoon.
Unai Emery: "Against Liverpool I think we had more in the 90 minutes of the game. Our idea is to repeat matches with this pace over 90 minutes.
"It is about the progress in the team. The progress is about continuing to create confidence and creating also tactically different ways to improve."
16:20
Nuno Espiritio Santo doesn't like changes and therefore it is no surprise that Wolves are unchanged from the same side that lost 3-2 at home against Tottenham last weekend.
16:15
ONE CHANGE FOR GUNNERS
Alex Iwobi comes in for Henrikh Mkhitaryan, and that is the only change from the starting XI held by Liverpool last weekend.
Meanwhile, there is a place for 19-year-old Edward Nketiah on the bench.
