Arsenal vs Brighton Match Prediction, Betting Tips, Injury Updates, Probable Starting 11

Arsenal will take on Brighton & Hove Albion on Sunday, May 14 in a game that could be hugely crucial for the title race. The Gunners trail Manchester City by a point and have also played a game more.

The Cityzens will play earlier than their title rivals on Sunday as they will travel to Merseyside to take on an Everton side who are just above the danger zone. The Toffees secured a much-needed victory against Brighton last week but the score line of 5-1 was somewhat of a major surprise.

Brighton have been a bogey team for the Gunners with the Seagulls having won on both of their previous two visits to the Emirates including in this year’s Carabao Cup. In fact, the Gunners have won only one of their last five home games against Brighton.

Arsenal vs Brighton injury updates

Arsenal will be hoping to have William Saliba back from a nagging back injury, although it seems unlikely with the French defender fighting to play again this season. Mohamed Elneny and Takehiro Tomiyasua are both long-term absentees with knee issues.

Solly March is a doubt for Brighton. Roberto De Zerbi will also miss Jeremy Sarmiento (ankle), Tariq Lamptey (knee), Adam Lallana (thigh), Jakub Moder (knee), and Joel Veltman (hamstring).
