  • 90'
    FT: Arsenal 0-3 Brighton. Seagulls dominate a second half in which Arsenal were no where near their normal level. Enciso first before Undav and Estupinan added late on were enough to punish Arsenal for a poor afternoon. Title hopes all but over for the Gunners now, they're 4 points adrift having played one game more as well.

    Both sides coming out here in London.... can't wait for this one!
  • PRVW
    Kick-off under ten minutes away here at the Emirates! The crowd are warming up to this one nicely.
  • PRVW
    Arsenal line-up confirmed: Ramsdale, White, Kiwior, Gabriel, Tierney, Jorginho, Xhaka, Odegaard, Saka, Martinelli, Jesus.
  • PRVW
    Brighton line-up confirmed: Steele, Dunk, Colwill, Mac Allister, Gross, Enciso, Mitoma, Caicedo, Gilmour, Estupinan.
  • PRVW
    As for Brighton, they're having a great season, winning two of their last three in the PL. However, they did fall heavily last time out against Everton. A disappointing loss against a side who are battling relegation.
  • PRVW
    The Gunners have mixed form coming in to this one, winning their last two in the league, but failing to get more than a point in the previous four before that. Not the clinical title-winning form you need at this stage of the season if you want to be up there challenging with Guardiola's City.
  • PRVW
    Brighton POSSIBLE line-up: Steele; Gross, Dunk, Colwill, Estupinan; Caicedo, Gilmour; Enciso, Mac Allister, Mitoma; Ferguson
  • PRVW
    Arsenal POSSIBLE line-up: Ramsdale; White, Kiwior, Gabriel, Tierney; Odegaard, Jorginho, Xhaka; Saka, Jesus, Martinelli
  • PRVW
    Without further ado, let's take a look at how both sides might be lining up for this one this afternoon....
  • PRVW
    As for the Seagulls, they're seven points off the Europa League spots, so they'll be hoping to grab a shock win to keep their hopes alive.
  • PRVW
    Arteta's Gunners look to maintain their stellar form and maintain the pressure on league leaders City.
