Prediction, Odds & Betting Tips for Arsenal vs. Brighton at English Premier League
Brighton loves playing at the Emirates, and the best evidence of that is three wins in the past four visits to London. Arsenal stopped that last season, but the wounds are still fresh, and the fans are somewhat cautious ahead of this meeting. Both teams have a pair of wins in the opening two EPL rounds. They play interesting and efficient football, appealing to the fans. That’s why many expect to see exciting things at the Emirates this Saturday at noon.
Arsenal
Arsenal secured a satisfying measure of revenge against Aston Villa in Birmingham. Demonstrating their prowess, the Gunners outclassed the Villains with a decisive 2-0 victory, thereby avenging last year’s disappointing defeat at the Emirates, which dashed their title aspirations.
Arsenal opened their season with an easy 2-0 triumph over Wolverhampton Wanderers. Including preseason encounters, the Gunners are on a four-win streak, and not just that, in each of these matches, their offense has been at a very high level, netting two or more goals.
Haverz and Saka are working well upfront, but we can’t get rid of the imperssion tha Martinelli underachieves a bit. Still, the season is young and there’s enough time for him to prove us wrong.
Brighton
Meanwhile, Brighton & Hove Albion earned a significant win against Manchester United last Saturday, edging out the Red Devils 2-1. The dramatic climax of the match saw Joao Pedro score the decisive goal in the 95th minute, outmaneuvering Onana for a memorable win. It’s essential to highlight that the Seagulls thoroughly deserved their triumph, having tactically outplayed Manchester United throughout the game.
Brighton’s first victory of the year was a commanding 3-0 win away at Liverpool, where they dismantled Everton on the opening day. Accounting for their preseason form, the team from Amex Stadium has impressively notched up six consecutive wins, with five of those matches featuring them scoring at least twice.
The unit’s offensive mentality is still present, and that’s what makes the Seagulls recognizable among fans.
Arsenal: Raya; White, Saliba, Gabriel, Zinchenko; Odegaard, Partey, Rice; Saka, Havertz, Martinelli
Brighton: Steele; Veltman, Van Hecke, Dunk, Hinshelwood; Milner, Wieffer; Minteh, Pedro, Mitoma; Welbeck
Arsenal triumphed in the previous season on both occasions. They were better than the Seagulls at the Emirates, 2-0, and then 0-3 at Amex Stadium.
If anyone doesn’t want to pick the full-time result here, we have a very nice suggestion. Take over 2.5 goals, with the odds not being that high, yet there is a minimal risk. Also, knowing these units and their tendency to score goals in the second half, over 1.5 in that period, is a reserve option.
Our verdict: Over 2.5 goals
