Brighton vs Arsenal Preview, Predictions & Betting Tips

Brighton are just two points clear of the relegation zone despite their 15th place standing. Arsenal’s midweek defeat means they remain ninth, eight points off Chelsea in fourth place.

 

Brighton & Hove Albion Form

Brighton have won just one of their last 14 league games and were winless in nine before the break.

The Seagulls have kept just two clean sheets since early November but have only conceded more than two goals in a game on three occasions. Eight of their last ten Premier League fixtures have seen fewer than 2.5 goals scored.

Graham Potter’s side have won just three games against sides currently above them in the table. However, of their 14 matches against top-half opposition, Brighton have avoided defeat seven times, including a 2-1 win over opponents Arsenal.

José Izquierdo is still unavailable through injury. The rest of the first-team squad should be available for selection.

 

Arsenal FC Form

Arsenal were eight games unbeaten prior to the restart of the Premier League. Their 3-0 loss to City was just their second loss since Mikel Arteta took charge in late 2019.

The Gunners have only lost one league game to sides outside the current top six (a 2-1 defeat to Brighton in December). The other 18 games have seen eight wins and ten draws. No side has drawn more league games than Arsenal this campaign.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang had previously scored six in eight under Arteta but struggled to make an impact from the wing against Manchester City.

Brighton vs Arsenal Prediction

It wasn’t the start Arsenal had hoped for at the Etihad. Despite a reasonably strong first half-hour, the Gunners came away empty-handed.

Their recent record with Brighton is poor but Arteta has thus far, only suffered defeats to top four sides. Arsenal should be able to bounce back with a win at the AMEX.

  • Correct Score Tip: Arsenal to Win 1-0 – 8/1 at bet365.
