Just three days after a 2-0 triumph over Luton, Arsenal are back in action as they take on Brighton and Hove Albion at the Amex Stadium. Mikel Arteta’s side sat top of the Premier League for 24 hours before Liverpool’s win over Sheffield United saw them demoted back down to second place but there is still everything to play for as we head into the final six fixtures of the Premier League 2023/24 campaign.
Arteta opted for a much changed squad to take on Luton with Thomas Partey enjoying his first start for the Gunners since October and Reiss Nelson re-joining the starting XI for the first time in four years. The latter was rewarded with a goal while fellow starter Emile Smith-Rowe exhibited a Man of the Match display as he fights for a place in Saturday’s squad.
Ahead of this weekend’s clash, here is the latest injury news from both Emirates and Amex Stadium camps...
