Arsenal vs Brighton Team News
Arsenal Team News
Arsenal couldn’t be in a better position: the Gunners are at the top of the Premier League, having only picked up one draw and one defeat in their first nine matches. They also remain undefeated in the Champions League with a perfect record after three encounters, including a 4-0 victory over Atlético de Madrid.
In their latest outing, Mikel Arteta’s men beat Crystal Palace 1-0 thanks to a first-half goal from Eberechi Eze, who has now fully integrated into the team’s dynamics. The league leaders fully dominated the game until the 70th minute, when the squad’s tempo lowered due to Arteta’s substitutions.

Yet one of the main criticisms of the coach has been his affinity towards Viktor Gyökeres, who remained on the pitch despite a poor performance.
In the previous round of the EFL Cup, Arsenal defeated Port Vale 2-0, with goals from Eze and Leandro Trossard.
Martin Ødegaard, Kai Havertz, and Noni Madueke are sidelined with injuries, while Gabriel Jesus is awaiting medical clearance.
Arsenal predicted lineup vs Brighton (4-3-3): Raya; Calafiori, Gabriel Saliba, Timber; Zubimendi, Merino, Eze; Martinelli, Gyökeres, Saka.
Brighton Team News
Since Fabian Hurzeler’s arrival, Brighton have dropped to 13th place, which can be attributed to a lack of consistency. In their last five Premier League matches, the club claimed one win, two draws, and a loss.
The Seagulls’ most recent defeat came against Manchester United last weekend (4-2). Although the score suggests Brighton were outclassed, they started the game well until conceding in the 24th minute.

Both teams registered a similar number of shots (17 to 13), leading to a negligible difference in xG (1.29 xG for Manchester, 1.12 xG for Brighton). However, United’s superior individual quality eventually proved decisive, and Brighton crumbled under pressure despite scoring twice in the second half.
In the EFL Cup, the Seagulls thrashed Barnsley 6-0, a victory that included four goals from Diego Gómez, as well as one from Harry Howell and Yasin Ayari each.
Adam Webster, Solly March, and Jack Hinshelwood are sidelined with injuries. Brajan Gruda, Joel Veltman, and Kaoru Mitoma are awaiting medical clearance.
Brighton predicted lineup vs Arsenal (4-2-3-1): Verbruggen; Cuyper, Dunk, Van Hecke, Wieffer; Ayari, Baleba; Minteh, Rutter, Kadioglu; Welbeck.

Arsenal vs Brighton Prediction, Odds
- Prediction: Arsenal to win
- Odds: -251 (Tonybet)
- Correct score prediction: Arsenal 2-0 Brighton
The EFL Cup may not be Mikel Arteta’s priority, but a weak lineup isn’t expected at the Emirates. Arsenal have usually looked to compete for all trophies and will face a side that suits their strengths.
The Gunners might have an opportunity to rest key players ahead of more important games further down the calendar, as they go up against a team that often struggle with defence. One goal within the first 25 minutes could be enough for Arteta to install his defensive block.
If cleared, this would be the opportunity for players like Gabriel Jesus, who only recently recovered, to test the grounds. In the past, Arteta has also moved Merino as a striker or allowed squad players like Martinelli to feature.
Arsenal vs Brighton Betting Tip
- Pick: Only Arsenal to score
- Odds: +149 (Tonybet)
Ødegaard’s injury has forced Arteta to play a more defensive brand of soccer, as he’s been deprived of his best playmaker. Instead, this may be one of the games where the manager looks for alternatives to Gyökeres, who has struggled to adapt to Arsenal’s build-up demands.
As Brighton struggle to score, chances are that they won’t be able to put a goal past Arteta’s defensive block.
