Brighton vs Arsenal Prediction & Betting Tips | 06/04/2024 | Football

Posted on by Matthew Reynolds

Our prediction for this Premier League match:

Brighton

Brighton

Arsenal

Arsenal

Following a routine 2-0 win over Luton Town, Arsenal will be aiming to stay in the title race when they take on Brighton at Amex Stadium. Mikel Arteta rested several first-team regulars in the midweek triumph, but the Spanish tactician is going to field the best possible side against the Seagulls. All Declan Rice, Jorginho, and Gabriel Jesus should be recalled to the starting XI, while Bukayo Saka should recover in time to face Brighton.

The hosts, on the other hand, played out a boring goalless draw with Brentford in midweek to remain in the top half of the table. Anyhow, away win should be considered as Mikel Arteta is going to count on key players this time out. Danny Welbeck is widely expected to return to Brighton’s starting line-up, whilst all Billy Gilmour, Jack Hinshelwood, Kaoru Mitoma, and James Milner are sidelined with injuries. Talented attacker Evan Ferguson has overcome his injury.

Highlighted Team (Arsenal):

Arsenal

Arsenal are regarded as one of the best English teams. The Gunners have won 12 FA Cup trophies, 13 league titles and two League Cups, but they have yet to lift the Champions League trophy. Arsene Wenger’s team were on the verge of beating Barcelona in the Champions League final back in 2006, but they eventually failed to win the prestigious title.

Arsenal used to play their homes at Highbury, but in 2006 they moved to the Emirates Stadium. The capacity of the stadium is 60,260. The Gunners won their last Premier League trophy back in 2004, with the capital club going through the season without a single loss. The likes of Thierry Henry, Denis Bergkamp and Robert Pires were part of the team back then, but Arsenal have not won the league trophy ever since.

Arsenal was founded by Woolwich munitions workers as Dial Square back in 1886. It is well known that Tottenham Hotspur are Arsenal’s fiercest rivals and there have always been fireworks when the two local rivals meet in the North London derby.
