Arsenal: WWWWLD
Arsenal’s recent winning run ended last weekend, as the high-flying Aston Villa beat them 1-0 to help Liverpool reach the Premier League summit. The Gunners continued their winless run earlier this week as they played out a 1-1 draw with PSV Eindhoven in the UEFA Champions League.
Brighton & Hove Albion: WWLWDW
Brighton & Hove Albion have a similar record to Arsenal in recent weeks. Like the Gunners, they have won four games, lost once and drawn another. Brighton’s most recent match ended in a crucial 1-0 win over Marseille in the UEFA Europa League. But Burnley held the Seagulls to a 1-1 draw at the Amex last weekend.
Head-To-Head Record
Brighton & Hove Albion have an inferior head-to-head record against Arsenal, losing 15 games while winning only eight times. Five matches have ended in a stalemate. Meanwhile, the recent games have favoured the Seagulls, who have clinched three victories in the last five meetings (D1 L1).
Key Stats
- Brighton & Hove Albion have won five and lost four of their 12 Premier League matches against Arsenal. Liverpool and Manchester United are the only other teams to have more wins than defeats versus the Gunners in the division.
- Arsenal are unbeaten in 12 home games in all competitions since losing 3-0 to Brighton in May (W10 D2). But they have dropped points in four of their six league matches this season against teams in the top half of the table until this weekend (W2 D2 L2).
- Brighton & Hove Albion took 15 points from a possible 18 in their opening six league games this season but have since claimed just 11 points from a possible 30. They have dropped points in four of their five league fixtures this term that have directly followed a Europa League match (W1 D3 L1).
- Arsenal have kept six clean sheets in their previous 32 top-flight fixtures at the Emirates.
- Bukayo Saka has been directly involved in 13 goals in his last 11 appearances at the Emirates Stadium in all competitions, scoring eight and providing five assists.
Prediction and Betting Tips
Arsenal might have an inferior recent head-to-head record against Brighton & Hove Albion, but form favours the home side. The Gunners have not lost a game at home this season, while the Seagulls have dropped many points in the last ten games. So, we are going ahead with Arsenal to win.
Mikel Arteta’s men have struggled to keep a clean sheet at home. Meanwhile, Brighton & Hove Albion have found the back of the net in their last 32 Premier League games. So, we are backing both teams to score on Sunday.
