Match Preview

Even though Arsenal are still languishing in 7th spot following a nervy start to Premier League proceedings in 2017/18, the pressure has lessened somewhat on Arsene Wenger after a productive couple of weeks. As we begin today’s Arsenal vs Brighton & Hove Albion preview, we can see that the Gunners are unbeaten in five. Four of those matches were at the Emirates against teams you would expect the North Londoner’s to beat – Bournemouth, Koln, Doncaster and WBA aren’t the most difficult opponents to face at the best of times. With another winnable game lined up on Sunday, it’s no surprise to see the home team priced so narrowly in the bookies’ soccer odds.

The Seagulls will be satisfied with their Premiership work so far. Two wins and a draw from six league fixtures ahead of our free Arsenal vs Brighton & Hove Albion betting tips places Chris Hughton’s men in 13th. If you offered them that as a final position for next May, they would certainly take it. This is Brighton & Hove Albion’s first ever year in the Premier League, but one defeat in their four most recent matches at that level shows they are up to the considerable challenge. They are yet to win on their travels, however, losing two and drawing one of their three games away from the south coast so far.

Arsenal vs Brighton & Hove Albion Prediction and Betting Advice

The Seagulls have only scored once in their Premier League away games so far in 2017/18. Chris Hughton would have expected their sternest tests to come away from Brighton and he would have banked on getting more points at the Falmer Stadium to help their bid for survival. The home team have enjoyed a series of kind fixtures recently (bar their trip to Chelsea), and that sequence of winnable games has helped them generate some confidence and momentum in their ranks.

Arsenal have won all three of their Premier League matches this season and all five fixtures at the Emirates overall. Three clean sheets in their last four in front of their own fans is a stat that caught our attention and leads us nicely into the opening selection in our Arsenal vs Brighton & Hove Albion bets. 10Bet have very generous odds for our free forecast, so take them while you can.

Alexandre Lacazette takes centre stage for the next of our football tips. The French international was signed from Lyon over the summer for a transfer fee approaching £50m. Lacazette had been lethal in France, racking up big numbers in terms of goals for several seasons in a row. It hasn’t taken the 26-year-old long to adapt to the English game and he already has four goals in six matches for the Gunners.

The pacey number nine has bagged three Premier League goals in his last three outings, making him a stand-out choice to score again in our Arsenal vs Brighton & Hove Albion predictions. With the home side likely to dominate from the off this weekend, there should be plenty of opportunities for the Frenchman to add to his growing tally of goals for the season. Bet-at-home have a fine range of goalscorer odds and options, beating their competition for value.
