Arsenal Predicted Lineup vs Brighton<\/h2>\n

How Arsenal Have Lined Up Recently<\/h3>\n

Arsenal have mainly lined up in their usual 4-3-3 formation this season, as they did once again last time out, against Crystal Palace. David Raya started in goal, with a back four of Jurrien Timber, William Saliba, Gabriel Magalhaes, and Riccardo Calafiori. The Gunners have been difficult to break down in recent weeks, which is helping them continue their impressive form.<\/p>\n

In midfield, the Gunners lined up with Declan Rice and Martin Zubimendi, with Eberechi Eze ahead of those two. Out wide, it was Bukayo Saka and Leandro Trossard, while Viktor Gyokeres was leading the line.<\/p>\n

Arsenal’s Recent Form<\/h3>\n

The Gunners have been in great form since losing to Liverpool on August 31. They\u2019ve recorded nine wins and a draw in that run of games, showing a steeliness in defence that has made them difficult to beat so far this season.<\/p>\n

Despite suffering key injuries, Mikel Arteta\u2019s team have continued to progress. Their summer signings have settled well, giving them a strength in depth they lacked last season.<\/p>\n

The fixture list is looking busy for Arteta\u2019s team, but with key players still to return, they look primed to mount a challenge on all fronts.<\/p>\n

Arsenal Injury News<\/h3>\n

At the pre-match press conference<\/a>, Mikel Arteta confirmed he will be without Saliba and most likely Martinelli. Despite those setbacks, the Gunners boss did reveal Rice and Calafiori will be available for selection.<\/p>\n
