Saturday's programme of the top English competition will end with a duel between this season's pleasant surprise Brighton, who welcome London Arsenal at their home stadium Amex. 

Background information, news and team form

Brighton has entered the new Premier League season in style. Brighton, who were identified by many at the start of the season as adept for relegation are in sixth place and have managed to go 5 times unbeaten and 4 times victorious in their opening 6 games. In the first game of the season, Brighton managed to win 1-2 at Burnley after goals from Maupaay and Allister, although they were 1-0 down after the first half. In the next match, Brighton managed to beat newcomer Watford 2-0. Then came a loss at home to Everton after a lacklustre 0-2 performance, but Brighton managed to respond to this defeat in style by beating Leicester, who are playing in the European Cups, 2-0 at home. In the last game, Brighton travelled to Crystal Palace where it looked like they would finally lose thanks to a Zaha penalty kick in injury time of the first half, but the visitors from Brighton managed to equalise in injury time as well, but in the second half. The game ended in a 1-1 draw. The Seagulls also managed to get through the 2 preliminary rounds of the League Cup, so it will be very interesting to see how far Brighton will go this season.Arsenal, on the other hand, has started this season as badly as they could. In the opening 3 games Arsenal failed to win, but moreover failed to score a single goal. Arsenal got two goals from newcomer Brentford, two more goals at home from Chelsea and in the following away game Arsenal got a beating from Manchester City in the form of an inglorious 5-0 defeat. However, Arsenal thankfully picked themselves up after the national break, the squad thinned out and after improved performances, Arsenal have managed to win 3 times in the last 3 Premier League games and keep a clean sheet on two occasions, against Norwich and Burnley. In the last league game, Arsenal managed to win the famous North London derby against their arch-rivals Tottenham 3-1 after goals from Aubameyang, Saka and Smith Rowe. Arsenal is not playing any European cup competitions this season and their main focus is the domestic league.

Absentees and estimated line-ups 

Brighton confirmed at the press conference that Adam Webster will not be available until the national break. In addition, Danny Welbeck and Steven Alzate were injured in the last game and so their starts in the next game are impossible. For midfielder Yves Bissouma and Enock Mwepa, there is a definite chance that they could make this game and recover in time.

Arsenal's Granit Xhaka returned last game, who was serving his card but picked up a knee injury from the game and so will not start that game. Otherwise, Mikel Arteta has all the players available.

Brighton - estimated line-up:

Sanchez - Dunk, Duffy, Burn - Veltman, Bissouma, Gross, Cucurella - Trossard, Connolly - Maupay

Arsenal - estimated line-up:

Ramsdale - Tomiyasu, White, Gabriel, Tierney - Lokonga, Partey - Saka, Odegaard, Smith Rowe - Aubameyang
