Arsenal FC vs Brighton: Prediction, kick off time, TV, live stream, team news, lineups, h2h results, odds
Arsenal today remain in the hunt for European football as they take on Brighton on the final day of the Premier League season.
The 2020/21 campaign has been one of highs and lows for Arsenal - mostly lows, if we’re being brutally honest - but the Gunners have been in form of late despite their Europa League semi-final disappointment, and look to be signing off on a high.
Arsenal face the prospect of not playing in Europe for the first time in 25 years, but will qualify for the new Europa Conference League if they beat Brighton and Tottenham and Everton both fail to win on Sunday.

Arsenal vs Brighton prediction
Brighton’s momentous 3-2 win against champions Man City in midweek should serve as a warning to Arsenal, but that game may well have taken a fair bit out of the Seagulls. It wouldn’t be a huge surprise to see a comfortable home win if the visitors are feeling the after-effects of that comeback victory.
