Bukayo Saka has started all four of Arsenal’s Premier League matches, scoring three goals and registering eight shots on target. He recorded three in the win at Sunderland before being rested from the starting XI against Ipswich in midweek. With Saka refreshed and averaging two efforts on target per league game, we are backing him to test Bart Verbruggen.
Pascal Groß has started each of Brighton’s four league games and remains central to their work with and without the ball. The midfielder has collected two bookings while committing seven fouls, an average of 1.75 per match. Arsenal’s movement between the lines should give Groß plenty of defensive work, making him an sensible card candidate.
Arsenal have conceded only once in four league games, but Brighton’s attacking start makes this a tougher clean-sheet test. The Seagulls have scored 13 times, including four against Aston Villa and five at Coventry, while Arsenal have found the net in every league outing. Brighton have also conceded five across their four matches, so both sides scoring seems plausible here.
Arsenal have opened the league season with four straight wins, scoring eight and conceding once. They have also avoided defeat in their last seven meetings with Brighton, winning the three most recent encounters. Mikel Arteta rested several regulars in Tuesday’s cup win at Ipswich, and that freshness can help the Gunners edge a competitive game at the Amex.
