WOLVES 0
ARSENAL 2
Trossard 45, Odegaard 90+5
In contrast to title rivals Manchester City and Liverpool, pundits reckon they have the toughest games on the run-in.
And if this juddering collision with Wolves is a measure of what's to come, Mikel Arteta's Gunners really will be worthy champions if they manage to finish on top.
Bottlers? Forget it.
This clash quickly turned into a potential banana skin for an Arsenal side who needed to shake themselves down after a hellish week at home and abroad.
Fortunately, Arteta has an abundance of quality to call on and, on a nervy night for away fans, Leandro Trossard showed what a steal he was at £21 million last year.
Trossard couldn't crown his move with the title last year, but his sweet goal on the stroke of half-time settled nervy Arsenal fans who are maybe fearing the worst again.
His hug from Arteta when his night ended on 71 minutes was richly deserved.
