PREDICTION
A couple of years ago, Arsenal suffered a 3-0 defeat at home to Brighton and Hove Albion to basically end their chances of winning the title. Last season, the Gunners suffered two defeats to Aston Villa, including one in mid-April, which proved to cost their title chances. Now though, Mikel Arteta’s controlled and dominant side have already begun their season by dismissing the Villains and they will look to avenge another ghost against the Seagulls here. Brighton have looked very strong with three wins from three across all competitions ahead of this weekend but Arsenal, especially at the Emirates, should be favoured for what could be a fun and high-scoring clash.
