The Premier League is back in our lives this weekend with a full slate of fixtures to get excited about. While we may only have a handful of games left to be played, there’s still a whole lot left to be determined at both ends of the table – which is what makes this the most exciting league in the world. Today, we’ll be taking a look at a mammoth encounter between Arsenal and Brighton & Hove Albion.

Arsenal

From a dream season to a nightmare in a matter of weeks. As a result of their recent form, Arsenal are no longer in control of their own destiny. They must now push to win every remaining game they have and from there, hope and pray that Manchester City falter. Either way, it’s been a great campaign, but Mikel Arteta knows that they may not get another chance as good as this one for a while.

Team News

Zinchenko, Saliba, Elneny and Tomiyasu are all out injured for the Gunners.

Brighton

Brighton & Hove Albion have played so well this season that if they didn’t end up securing European football, it would probably be seen as something of a failure. The Seagulls are a remarkable side and with Roberto De Zerbi steering the ship, it feels inevitable that they’re only going to go from strength to strength. In games like this, though, they need to make a real statement to showcase that they belong.

Team News

March is a fitness concern for the trip to the capital with Veltman, Moder, Lamptey, Lallana and Sarmiento being injured.

Factors to Consider

  • On New Year’s Eve, Arsenal beat Brighton 4-2.
  • Arsenal have won two, drawn three and lost one of their last six games.
  • Brighton have won three, drawn one and lost two of their last six games.
  • Arsenal have scored 13 goals and conceded 12 in their last six games.
  • Brighton have scored 11 goals and conceded nine in their last six games.

Conclusion

This is going to be a pretty gruelling affair, and by gruelling, we mean for both sets of fans – because these clubs mean business across the pitch. It should be quite technical with the ball often being kept on the deck, with the visitors trying to hit the hosts with an early blow. In the end, though, we think Arsenal will keep their composure, winning this encounter to keep their push for the title going strong.
