Arsenal enters this fixture aiming to close the gap with Premier League leaders Liverpool. The Gunners are currently six points behind Liverpool and are on a 12-game unbeaten streak. However, they will be without key defender Jurrien Timber, who is suspended after accumulating five yellow cards. Additionally, Ben White and Takehiro Tomiyasu are injured, which may force manager Mikel Arteta to deploy Thomas Partey as a makeshift right-back. Midfielder Declan Rice is doubtful due to fitness concerns, and winger Bukayo Saka remains sidelined. Arsenal will lean on Kai Havertz for production, as he has netted 7 goals this season.

Brighton & Hove Albion, under manager Fabian Hurzeler, have been struggling recently, failing to secure a win in their last seven matches. Despite this, they have been resilient at home, losing just once at the Amex Stadium this season. The Seagulls are expected to welcome back key players Kaoru Mitoma and Georginio Rutter, which could bolster their attacking options.
