After an excellent performance in the North London derby last time out, Arsenal will travel to the Amex Stadium this weekend full of confidence.
Their opponents, Brighton, managed to scrape a 1-1 draw against rivals Crystal Palace on Monday night, but they have been in good form so far this season, so this is likely to be a tight game.
In terms of team news, the Gunners have just one injury in the senior squad, with it now being confirmed that Granit Xhaka will be out for three months after sustaining a knee injury versus Tottenham.
The Seagulls have five players currently on the treatment table. Yves Bissouma (knee) and Enock Mwepu (groin) are doubts while former Arsenal forward Danny Welbeck is unlikely to feature due to a hamstring problem. Adam Webster (thigh) and Steven Alzate (ankle) have been ruled out of contention.
The bookmakers have made the Gunners the favourites with Betway pricing them at 6/4 for the win. A draw is 12/5 with Betfred while a victory for Brighton is currently 21/10 at Bet 365.
Predicted Score – 1-1
