On February 18, a rescheduled match of the 31st round of the English Championship will take place between Wolverhampton and Arsenal. Can the underdog cause problems for the league leader?

This season has been simply disastrous for Wolverhampton. After 26 rounds of the English Championship, the Wolves have only 9 points, which puts them at the very bottom—20th place in the league table. The gap from the safe 17th position is currently 18 points. In the FA Cup, Wolverhampton defeated Shrewsbury and Grimsby to qualify for the Round of 16, where they will face Liverpool.

Arsenal’s form needs little introduction. After 26 Premier League rounds, the Londoners have earned 57 points, which keeps them at the top of the table. However, the gap to their closest rival, Manchester City, isn’t large—just 4 points. In the FA Cup, the Gunners also made it to the Round of 16 (where they will play Mansfield), and in the League Cup, they reached the final, where they will face Manchester City. In eight Champions League matches, the English side claimed a record 24 points, finishing first overall and qualifying for the Round of 16.
