Arsenal will be looking to get back on track in the Premier League this weekend, when they welcome Brighton to the Emirates. However, Brighton come into the weekend is better form after going two without defeat in the top-flight.
Premier League Preview
Arsenal will be looking for a response when they return to Premier League action this weekend after seeing their winning run halted at Aston Villa last Saturday. That defeat leaves the Gunners sitting second in the standings, as they relinquished top spot in the standings to Liverpool after their win on the road at Crystal Palace.
The Gunners will still feel confident coming into this match, as they would have felt that they were the better team in their recent defeat against Aston Villa. Arsenal weren’t awarded a penalty in the second period, while they also saw a late equaliser ruled out. A return to winning ways this weekend could see the Gunners end the round back at the summit.
Brighton’s indifferent form in the Premier League has seen them drop to eighth in the standings. However, they remain one of the most pleasing sides on the eye this term, as they have scored 33 goals and have conceded 28. But, if they are to get back into the mix for a European finish this term, then they will need to put together a run of wins.
The Seagulls come into this fixture after winning twice in their last five, but they have suffered just a single defeat over the same period. But, a much better performance will be expected this weekend as they struggled to a draw against Burnley in their previous match. They rescued a point in that home match with just 13 minutes remaining, with Simon Adinga finding the back of the net.
Arsenal vs Brighton Head to Head
Brighton have enjoyed their recent trips to the Emirates, as they have recorded victories on each of their previous two visits. The latest of those came toward the end of last season, as they put in one of the performances of the season to secure a 3-0 success.
