Top plays bottom in the Premier League today and it’s hard to see dispirited Wolverhampton Wanderers escaping a heavy defeat against Arsenal at the Emirates.

Even an unconvincing Manchester United team managed to score four times at Molineux on Monday against a Wolves side who have taken just two points from 15 games this season.

So it could get ugly for Rob Edwards’ men if the Gunners are in the mood as the leaders look to bounce back from just their second Premier League loss all season.

Arsenal vs Wolverhampton Wanderers top betting tips

A run of just two wins in their last five Premier League games has seen Arsenal’s lead at the top cut to just two points but it’s not as if the Gunners have been playing that poorly.

They roared back to form with a 3-0 win away to Club Brugge in the Champions League on Wednesday night and are a tiny 1/8 with most firms to see off Wolves.

It’s hard finding value with Mikel Arteta’s side such heavy favourites but backing them to win both halves pays a decent 11/10 with 888Sport.

Eberechi Eze got the night off in Belgium so I’d imagine the playmaker will return to the starting line up for this one.

His creativity will be key to breaking down the Wolves defence and he’s 17/11 at Unibet for anytime scorer. An assist is slightly bigger at 9/4 with Bet365 and that looks more appealing.

Liverpool vs Brighton

Liverpool also got back to winning ways in Europe on Tuesday and will now look to follow that up with a much-needed Premier League victory at home to Brighton.

Sulking Mo Salah sat out the trip to the San Siro and the Reds dug deep for embattled boss Arne Slot as they claimed a 1-0 triumph over Inter Milan.

The clean sheet came as surprise after leaking three goals at Elland Road and it will be fascinating to see if the champions can now turn their awful domestic form around.

The bookies make them odds-on favourites at home to the Seagulls but it won’t be easy as Fabian Hurzeler’s men sit above them in the table on goal difference.

Brighton should get a few chances as I’d imagine the Reds will be a bit more open than they were in Italy. That makes over 2.5 saves for Liverpool’s Alisson a decent option at 11/10 with Bet365.

Dominic Szoboszlai is the one Anfield star who has hit top form this season and the Hungarian looks good at 21/20 to score or assist with the same firm, provided Slot doesn’t give him a breather after a hectic run of games.

Chelsea vs Everton

Chelsea badly need three Premier League points at home to Everton today to spark their season back to life after going four games without a win in all competitions.

The Blues were looking like title contenders after holding Arsenal to a 1-1 draw at Stamford Bridge with 10 men two weeks ago.

But they’ve followed that up with poor performances in a defeat to Leeds, a draw with Bournemouth and a Champions League loss to Atalanta.

In-form Everton will present another test today but Chelsea are odds-on favourites at a best 7/10 with Betway.

Enzo Maresca kept wonderkid Estevao on the bench in midweek so I’d imagine the Brazilian will be unleashed from the start today. He’s 21/20 to score or assist at Bet365 and that looks decent value.

Kiernan Dewsbury Hall has been in terrific form for the Toffees and always looks a threat from his advanced midfield role. He’s 9/4 at Bet365 just to have a shot on target against his old club and that looks well worth a punt.
