Bukayo Saka And Gabriel Martinelli To Start; Emile Smith Rowe On The Bench: Arsenal’s Predicted XI To Play Brighton

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta says they will leave it until the last moment before deciding on whether to start Bukayo Saka against Brighton.

The 22-year-old was missing from the squad for the 2-0 win over Luton Town on Wednesday night due to a thigh injury he picked up versus Manchester City.


However, it is hoped that, if Saka makes it through the training session on Friday, he will be in the travelling party for the match at the Amex.
