Kieran Tierney and Takehiro Tomiyasu will miss Arsenal's Premier League opener through injury, but Arteta is hopeful Jurrien Timber can recover from a hamstring injury.
Timber is one of the options for the left-back position, competing with Riccardo Calafiori, but Oleksandr Zinchenko has impressed and could be given a start.
The match will also be David Raya's full debut following his move from Brentford, while Thomas Partey is expected to start at No. 6, despite Arsenal's pursuit of Mikel Merino.
On the opposing side, Wolves coach O'Neil also has to deal with the absence of Nelson Semedo due to suspension. Matt Doherty and new signing Pedro Lima will compete for a starting position.
O'Neil hopes players like Matheus Cunha, Mario Lemina, and Jorgen Strand Larsen will be able to recover from minor injuries in time to play, while Daniel Podence and Leon Chiwone remain sidelined. Midfielder Enso Gonzalez and striker Sasa Kalajdzic are facing lengthy recoveries from serious cruciate ligament injuries.

Latest comments before the match Arsenal vs Wolves
Before Spain won men's football gold at the 2024 Olympics, Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta faced his team finishing second in the Premier League again, extending a two-decade streak without a title since the Invincibles era of 2003-04. Although Arsenal had a slim chance of overtaking Man City on the final day, a 2-1 win over Everton was not enough.
Arsenal are on the rise under Arteta, with successes at the Emirates in pre-season including wins over Bayer Leverkusen and Lyon. However, they have lost to Manchester United on penalties and Liverpool in friendlies.
Arsenal will face Wolves, who have had a turbulent 2023-24 campaign. Wolves established themselves as a mid-table side under O'Neil, but ended the season on a losing streak that saw them drop to 14th. Despite some success in pre-season friendlies, Wolves have lost their opening Premier League game in each of the last three seasons and face a fourth straight defeat this weekend.
Arsenal are on a 33-game unbeaten run against Wolves and are expected to extend that run to 34 this weekend. With a healthy attacking line-up, Arsenal have plenty of room to manoeuvre against an inconsistent Wolves side.
