Arsenal vs Brighton Prediction

Arsenal Form

In their last three matches, Arsenal won 2-1 and 0-1 against first Wolverhampton then Everton, before drawing 1-1 against Crystal Palace. Arsenal have been in potent form at Emirates Stadium, winning no less than five of the past six Premier League matches here. They remained without defeat, as they drew once, hammered in 12 goals while letting in three.

Spoken of as title contenders, Arsenal are currently doing a good job of living up to the hype in the Premier League this season.

Brighton Form

Brighton have been a tad mediocre in their last three matches where a win has failed to come their way. Against West Ham, they got a 1-1 draw, before coming up short against Liverpool, who ran out 2-0 winners. Lately, they managed to draw once again in a 0-0 game with Sunderland. Brighton claimed two wins against two draws and two defeats in their last six away matches in the Premier League. The scoreline from these matches reads eight goals conceded and eight scored.

Brighton have already squandered enough points to put themselves under pressure, if they are to challenge for the title seriously in the Premier League this season.

The Gunners are far too strong to let a home win slip against Brighton, but at the same time, we don't expect the visitors to get over-run. This makes us target the home win in a match with less than three goals.

Arsenal have taken 12 points from their last eight games against teams from the top half of the Premier League table. They won three of these matches with a scoreline of eight goals to seven. Brighton took two wins from their last eight games against teams from the top half of the Premier League table. They collected eight points, scored ten goals and conceded 14.
