Is Arsenal vs Wolves on TV? Gunners host Gary O’Neil’s side in a tricky Premier League opener – stream, team news

ARSENAL will be hoping they can finally end their Premier League trophy drought this season – and a tough opening fixture against Wolves is first on the to-do list.

The Gunners feel right back at home after spending most of their pre-season overseas.

Since their 2-1 loss to Liverpool in Philadelphia, Mikel Arteta‘s men have run riot against German champions Bayer Leverkusen.

And they comfortably beat French giants Lyon 2-0 – both at the Emirates.

So they’ll be oozing with confidence knowing that their 2024/25 opening Premier League match is on home soil.

Furthermore, Gary O’Neil has arguably lost his best player Pedro Neto to Chelsea which is a huge boost for the Arsenal defence.

However, Wolves have never started a league season with defeat in four seasons in a row – and they are currently on three.

When is Arsenal vs Wolves?

Arsenal vs Wolves will take place on Saturday, August 17.

It is scheduled to kick off at 3pm BST.

Emirates Stadium is the allocated venue for this thrilling opening match and it can host approximately 60,704 passionate fans.

Goals from Leandro Trossard and Martin Odegaard fired Arsenal to a 2-0 win when the sides last met in April.

Is Arsenal vs Wolves on TV and can it be live streamed?

Arsenal vs Wolves will NOT be broadcast live on TV in the UK.

This is due to the Saturday, 3pm football blackout rule.

Fans can stream the highlights of the match through Sky Sports’ official YouTube channel once the game has concluded.

Alternatively, SunSport will have minute-by-minute coverage of the whole match through our live blog.

What is the team news?

Arsenal fans will be hoping to see a bit more of £42million summer signing Riccardo Calafiori after seeing his impressive debut against Lyon.

And there is a debate on whether he could slot straight into left-back with Jurrien Timber becoming a doubt due to a foot injury and Takehiro Tomiyasu out with a knee problem.

Elsewhere, Gary O’Neil will be delighted with the news that midfield maestro Matheus Cunha has shaken off his hamstring issues ahead of this huge opening clash.

However, the Wolves boss has confirmed that Jorgen Strand Larsen and Mario Lemina will need to take late fitness test due to them both feeling discomfort after the recent Rayo Vallecano defeat.
