Why Arsenal plays Wolves on Saturday at 7:45 p.m.

On Saturday, Arsenal travels to Wolves to take on the Premier League underachievers in a game that will start at an unusual time of 7:45 p.m. at Molineux.

Given that there are only two games on Sunday, it has become increasingly unclear why the game is starting so late on Saturday night.

Additionally, this weekend marks the final one before the Premier League’s six-week break as the World Cup break starts this week.

The match has been changed as a result of Arsenal’s Carabao Cup match against Brighton on Wednesday. The Gunners fell to Roberto De Zerbi’s team 3-1 in the competition’s third round.

The league was able to accommodate their short turnaround thanks to the postponement of the game on Saturday.

The same thing happened when Wolves played on Wednesday night. Boubacar Traore scored the game’s only goal as Wolves defeated Leeds 1-0.

There are no games on Monday nights because, like in regular international windows, players are joining up with their national teams on Monday as the World Cup break also signifies an international break for those nations not participating in Qatar.

Due to the World Cup, the Premier League has often had to postpone games so far this season.
