Brighton vs Arsenal – LIVE!. Arsenal travel down to Brighton in the Premier League later today. The Gunners came from behind to beat Brentford on New Year’s Day, kicking off 2025 in the best possible fashion. Indeed, Mikel Arteta’s could go three points behind leaders Liverpool with a victory on the south coast – albeit Arne Slot’s team will have two games in hand.
Still, the even the prospect of proving so close seemed a while off a long time ago. Though the chances of overtaking Liverpool remain reasonably remote, Arsenal just need to keep fulfilling their end of the bargain. Brighton started this season in stunning fashion but certainly have stalled of late. With that in mind and although it’s a difficult game, Arteta will feel confident about taking all three points back to north London later this evening.

Arsenal will be without Bukayo Saka, Ben White and Takehiro Tomiyasu through injury, whilst Jurrien Timber is suspended. Kai Havertz missed the Brentford game due to illness but is expected to return, while Raheem Sterling is back in training but won’t feature just yet.
Danny Welbeck has been ruled out of the meeting against his former club and the game comes too soon for £12million signing Diego Gomez to make his debut despite working with the squad. The likes of James Milner, Jack Hinshelwood and Ferdi Kadioglu are all likely to miss out, along with Evan Ferguson and Mats Wieffer but Brighton will hope to welcome back Pervis Estupinan and Adam Webster.
