The Emirates Stadium will be awash with excitement on Sunday evening (6:30pm) as Arsenal and Brighton & Hove Albion go head-to-head in a match that could have major implications for both sides. The Gunners are currently second in the Premier League table, just a point behind leaders Manchester City (82), having played a game more. A win for Arsenal would put them top of the table should Man City drop points at Everton, while a win for Brighton would move them into the UEFA Conference League spot.

Arsenal have been in good form in recent weeks, winning four of their last five home league games by an aggregate score of 17-8. The Gunners have scored at least three goals in all of those matches, and they have now scored in 17 consecutive games in all competitions. They have also emerged victorious in 25 out of their 35 games, showcasing their prowess on the field.
