Both sides returned to Premier League action with identical results. 3-1 winners over Brighton and West Ham respectively.
Brighton have had a successful season to date, sitting in 7th and only 5 points off the European spots. Although their home form is a little shaky (3W, D2, L2). This is a worry coming up against an Arsenal side who have the best away record in the league, scoring 14 goals in 8 matches on the road. Arteta’s men have also managed to keep 6 clean sheets in those games.
Arsenal have only conceded 4 away from home this season and continue to show why they should be challenging for the title. Unbeaten in their last 5 games (4W, 1D) conceding only 2 goals. While averaging 2.4 goals per game.
Brighton have found the net in 4 of their last 6 games, showing they are capable of causing an upset.
I do believe that Arsenal will be far too strong for Brighton but it may be closer than some people think!
Bet Prediction: Arsenal Win
