Arsenal
- Yves Bissouma didn't recover in time to face Crystal Palace on Monday and Brighton are sweating on his availability to face Arsenal.
- Ex-Arsenal forward Danny Welbeck may well miss out against his old club after suffering a hamstring injury on Monday.
- Steven Alzate is not expected to return until after the international break along with Adam Webster.
- Granit Xhaka is out for the best part of three months with knee ligament damage suffered in last weekend's 3-1 win over Tottenham.
- Emile Smith Rowe or Martin Odegaard may drop deeper to cover for Xhaka's absence with Nicolas Pepe or Alexandre Lacazette coming into the side.
- However, Albert Sambi Lokonga is perhaps more likely to take Xhaka's place in the team in an otherwise unchanged Arsenal XI.
Bad result. Brighton can't waste points against these weak teams.
Brighton - Arsenal 1:1(1:1)
