Brighton vs Arsenal LIVE: Premier League match stream, latest score, goal updates and fan reaction

Arsenal continue a run of successive away games today, facing Brighton in their last Premier League fixture before the first international break of the season. The Gunners have beaten Napoli, Sunderland and Ipswich across three different competitions in the past 10 days and are out to record an eighth straight win.

Mikel Arteta has, as expected, handed a recall to David Raya, Declan Rice, Riccardo Calafiori, Bukayo Saka and Kai Havertz this afternoon after they were all rested for the Carabao Cup win in midweek. Jurrien Timber is fit enough to make his first start of the season but, Ben White and Cristhian Mosquera both miss out.

Fabian Hurzeler, meanwhile, has said he has no regrets over past Arsenal comments as he prepares to renew a feud with Arteta and his side should be in good spirits after thumping Coventry last weekend and then coming from 2-0 down at Old Trafford to dump Manchester United out of the Carabao Cup. Follow Brighton vs Arsenal LIVE below with Standard Sport's dedicated match blog, featuring expert insight and analysis from Matt Verri at the Amex Stadium.

Mosquera is not in the squad this afternoon but he has travelled here to the Amex as the extra man. He's watching the warm-up from the touchline.

Suggests that he is close to a return and should be back and available after the international break.

Lewis Dunk is reportedly absent for Brighton this afternoon because of a stiff neck.
