Brighton & Hove Albion vs Arsenal. Shape of the Teams
The next match in the 32nd round of the Premier League will be between Brighton and Arsenal on April 6. Brighton are ninth in the table and were defeated by Liverpool in the last round. However, the performance from the Seagulls could be considered decent- they led the game thanks to a goal from Danny Welbeck but eventually lost 2-1.
On the other hand, Arsenal is in second place in the table, which indicates the team’s performance this season. Despite a draw in their recent standoff with Manchester City (0-0), the Gunners are showing excellent results.

The question is whether Brighton still has motivation for the rest of the season. The answer is positive, as Roberto De Zerbi’s men have their eyes firmly set on sixth place in the standings – currently occupied by Manchester United.
However, the Seagulls have not won a single game since a modest victory over Nottingham Forest a month ago.
Arsenal cannot afford to drop points with the Premier League race in full swing. In the last ten rounds of the Premier League, Mikel Arteta’s team grabbed nine victories and lost only two points in the draw against City.

Brighton & Hove Albion vs Arsenal Prediction, Odds
- Pick: Arsenal to Score over 1.5 goals
- Odds: -176 (Tonybet)
In recent years, Brighton has become an extremely uncomfortable opponent for Arsenal. The Gunners managed to secure only four victories in the last 13 head-to-head meetings with Brighton. However, based on past results and the current season’s dynamics, Arsenal is the favourite in the upcoming confrontation.
Mikel Arteta’s men are now in impressive shape. In the last round, they might have only won 2-0 against Luton Town, but they dominated the flow the whole game. The potential absence of Bukayo Saka due to injury might raise concerns. However, I think Kai Havertz, Martin Ødegaard and Leandro Trossard are ready to bolster Arsenal’s attack and be a major threat to Brighton’s defence.

Brighton’s defensive fortress seems to be showing cracks in recent games, conceding goals with unsettling regularity. This paves the way for Arsenal to net at least two goals in this encounter.
Brighton & Hove Albion vs Arsenal Betting Tip
- Pick: Total Over 2.5
- Odds: -159 (Tonybet)
Arsenal’s recent form isn’t just about clinching victories; it’s about doing so with a flourish in attack. In the last ten rounds, the Londoners scored an astonishing 35 goals (3.50 on average per game). This level of offensive productivity is rare for any football league and even rarer when it concerns the fiercely competitive Premier League.
Brighton are not the team that will park the bus just to hold off the Gunners, which sets the stage for a goal-laden game. Based on this, the most likely prediction seems to be a total of over 2.5 goals.

Moreover, the stats support this pick. Four of the last five matches between these two sides ended with at least three goals on the scoreboard. I don’t expect a different performance in this match, and possibly we will see a high-octane encounter with plenty of goal action.
