Brighton line up in a 4-2-3-1 system with Bart Verbruggen starting between the posts behind a defensive unit of Ferdi Kadioglu, Luka Vuskovic, Pascal Struijk, and Olivier Boscagli. Pascal Groß and Yasin Ayari anchor the midfield, providing the base for Diego Gómez, Chema Andrés, and Maxim De Cuyper behind lone striker Charalampos Kostoulas.
Arsenal
Arsenal mirror their hosts with a 4-2-3-1 formation, featuring David Raya in goal behind Jurriën Timber, Ezri Konsa, Gabriel Magalhães, and Riccardo Calafiori. Declan Rice partners Bruno Guimarães in the midfield pivot, while Bukayo Saka, Martin Ødegaard, and Christos Tzolis start in attack supporting centre-forward Kai Havertz.
Brighton vs Arsenal Reactive Bet Builder
Today's featured bet builder combines four selections: Arsenal to win, Bukayo Saka to score anytime, Kai Havertz to have over 0.5 shots on target, and Christos Tzolis to be shown a card. Saka has scored in three of his last four league appearances, while Havertz has registered at least one shot on target in four consecutive Premier League matches. With Tzolis carded in two of his previous three league outings, these legs align with recent form as Arsenal aim to extend their winning streak.
Brighton vs Arsenal Prediction After Confirmed Lineups
Arsenal come into this fixture on an impressive run having won their last nine Premier League matches, keeping seven clean sheets along the way, while also prevailing in their last three meetings with Brighton in all competitions. With the Gunners fielding a formidable attacking group and Brighton seeing over 2.5 goals in eight of their last ten league games, the visitors are favoured to come away with the victory.
Score Prediction: 1-2
