Brighton & Hove Albion, Recent FormBrighton & Hove Albion have set themselves up nicely for this match by securing a 3-1 away win against Southampton in their previous league match. During that encounter they had 66% possession and had 7 attempts on goal with 4 on target, while their opponents hit 4 of their 14 shots on goal.
While they have been strong in attack with 12 goals scored in their last 6 games, their defence has let them down slightly, by conceeding 9 at the other end which has led to points being dropped. With goals notched up in 5 of their past 6 matches, they are certainly showing some goal-scoring consistency of late. Unable to deliver a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games, it's fair to say they have their troubles at the back.
Arsenal, Recent FormArsenal head into this match with some confidence in the knowledge that they recorded a solid 3-1 home win against West Ham United in their last league encounter. They came away from that fixture with a 67% share of the possession and clocked up 16 attempts on goal with 5 on target, in comparison to West Ham United, who managed 8 attempts on goal, 4 of which were on target.
Mikel Arteta will be more than satisfied with his side's form of late, having recorded 13 goals in their last 6 encounters and only conceded 2 goals in that time. They are consistently finding a way through on goal, scoring in each of their last 16 games. With 4 clean sheets in their last 6 matches, they are proving that they are not easy to defeat.
They've had a good run of form recently, with 4 straight wins in a row, and are on an unbeaten run of 9 games.
Martin Ødegaard has scored 4 goals in the last 6 away games and will be looking to add more in this fixture against Brighton & Hove Albion.
In the previous league meeting between these two sides, it was Brighton & Hove Albion that came out on top with a 1-2 win.
During the last 2 times these two teams have met in the league at AMEX Stadium, Brighton have been unable to break through the visitor's defence and find the back of the net. Playing at home, Brighton have conceded at least one goal in 2 of their last 3 league games against Arsenal.

Mikel Arteta has a number of injury concerns in his Arsenal squad to contend with: Gabriel Jesus (Knee), Reiss Nelson (Knock), Emile Smith Rowe (Groin) and Takehiro Tomiyasu (Hamstring)
