Arsenal’s relentlessness has seen them rack up six successive wins to start the season, the latest of which coming in the EFL Cup at Ipswich in midweek.
There is a sense of inevitability about Mikel Arteta’s men at the minute and even when they are under the cosh – as they were at Sunderland last Saturday night – they still find a way.
They will be tested this afternoon by a Brighton side who are in great form themselves.
After hammering Coventry 5-0 last Sunday, the Seagulls followed that up with a superb come-from-behind win at Manchester United in the EFL Cup in midweek.
Here, 101 Great Goals brings you all the team news ahead of the 3pm kickoff.
