Arsenal v Brighton Betting Tips [5 May 2019]
The match
Notwithstanding the fact that they have one foot in the final of the Europa League, Arsenal will have all to play for in their final home game of the Premier League season against Brighton & Hove Albion. The Gunners have lost pace in the race to top-four with a run of four losses in five league games (W1, L4), and start this round two points behind top-four. Two-thirds of their season points (44 of 66) have come at home and that has certainly helped the Gunners this season. The 3-2 loss to Crystal Palace was just their second loss this season and came after a run of ten straight wins in Premier League home games. The worry for Arsenal is their defence that has already conceded 49 goals, which is the second-worst among top-nine sides. Brighton start this round just above the relegation zone and only four ahead of Cardiff. Should they lose this game and Cardiff win theirs against Crystal Palace at home, that would set up an intriguing final weekend. Brighton’s wretched form away from home is a cause of concern – they have won just once in their last ten Premier League trips (W1, D2, L7).
Key Statistics
- Arsenal have scored at least two goals in their last nine Premier League home matches.
- Arsenal have conceded at least three goals in their last three Premier League matches.
- Brighton have failed to win 28 of their last 31 Premier League away matches.
The bet of our experts
Arsenal need to continue their European form in the Premier League to have any hopes of finishing in the top-four. With Tottenham and Chelsea showing little signs of holding on to the lead, a win over Brighton & Hove Albion will give Arsenal a much-needed boost in their quest for top-four placing. The visitors’ poor away form is another quiver in Arsenal’s favour.
