Arsenal will look to keep themselves in the title race as they take on a rattled Brighton & Hove Albion at the Emirates on Sunday afternoon.
Arsenal secured an inspired 2-0 win over Newcastle United last weekend to ensure they’ll at least finish second in the Premier League. But they’ve come too far and fought too hard to be content with that and still have their eyes on the prize.
However, as things stand, Manchester City are in control and the Premier League title is theirs to lose.
Winning at St. James’ Park was a great result for Mikel Arteta’s men and they only trail City by a point right now. But it’s important to note that City have a game in hand over the Gunners. A loss last weekend against the Magpies would have put Pep Guardiola’s side in the clear but for now, the title race remains open.
Sunday’s game against Brighton is the biggest test for Arsenal in the business end of this season. Games against Nottingham Forest and Wolverhampton Wanderers will follow this one and Arsenal are fancied to win those two games.

Arsenal vs Brighton Prediction
Arsenal have struggled in the absence of William Saliba and Oleksandr Zinchenko. They’ll have to do without them for the remainder of the season. But Brighton look worse for wear as well with their own share of injury problems. Solly March, Adam Webster, Tariq Lamptey and Joel Veltman are all notable absentees.
Despite Brighton’s good record at the Emirates in recent seasons, we expect the Gunners to get the better of them this time around in what should be a riveting contest.
Prediction: Arsenal 2-1 Brighton & Hove Albion

We say: Arsenal 2-1 Brighton & Hove Albion
Without Saliba’s passing contributions from the back or Zinchenko’s line-breaking abilities, Arsenal’s build-up play will suffer greatly, and the Emirates has been a happy hunting ground for Brighton in recent memory.
A team refresh should do the shell-shocked Seagulls the world of good, but De Zerbi is dealing with his own untimely injury crisis, and a Brighton team who lack a consistent formula for success on the road should fall short at the Emirates as Arsenal keep the title fight going.
