Preview: Brighton & Hove Albion v Arsenal

We round off 2022 with a visit to the south coast to face Brighton, with both teams enjoying 3-1 Boxing Day successes following their return to Premier League action.

It has been just 52 days since we last faced the Seagulls, who knocked us out of the Carabao Cup via another 3-1 victory at Emirates Stadium, which gives Roberto De Zerbi’s side the chance to beat us in three successive games for the first time ever.

The Amex Stadium hasn’t been a happy hunting ground for us in recent years, but this season’s stats offer hope of changing that, with six clean sheets claimed from our eight league away trips - more than any other side and already matching our efforts last term.
