Brighton goalkeeper Rob Sanchez has fired a warning that his side are looking to build on their win over Manchester City by beating Arsenal.
The Gunners go into the final fixture of the season knowing that anything less than a win will ensure them of missing out on Europe, as well as needing both of Everton and Spurs to fail to win also.
We will have the advantage of playing at home in our final game of the season, which could be a huge boost with fans having returned to stadiums this week.
That home advantage helped Brighton to overcome Manchester City in midweek, despite trailing 2-0 before coming back to win 3-2, and the Seagulls are now targeting another bid win to close out their season.
“With the fans back and three points against the champions at the last home game of the season, there’s nothing better,” Sanchez told Brighton’s official website.
“I am delighted and in the changing room after the game it was amazing. It was an unreal night.
“Everyone is super happy with the result, and we’re going to Arsenal on Sunday with the mindset to get three points and finish off the season as well as we can.”
Brighton are safe from relegation, but could climb as many as three places to 13th in the Premier League table with a win, but there is much more on the line for our side headed into the final match with a place in Europe up for grabs.
Will Arsenal need to be at their best to overcome a resilient Brighton side at the Emirates come Sunday?

Sanchez,White, Bissouma and perhaps Trossard, are players who would strengthen the current Arsenal squad, so this is going to be a tough match on which to end the season.Having watched Brighton on numerous occasions , they are a side which is capable of creating chances ,so our defence will need to sharpen up on the performance against Palace where we were slipshod and were fortunate not to concede more goals.Danny Welbeck has done well for Brighton lately and it’s disappointing to learn that he is injured,again.
graham potter has done a good job at Brighton but still feel arsenal will get 3 points & finish 7th
Brighton now talking tough, saying they will beat Arsenal@the Emirates stadium on Sunday!!
Now nice!!..
We need to strengthen dis team and show some of dis Mid-table teams(Wolves, A.Villa, Southampton,etc) dat we re not at Par with Dem!!😏😏
Brighton have been party poopers towards us before. They play good football and Danny Welbeck is really performing for them. We will really have to press them to dominate them, otherwise they will outpass us and cause us big problems. Yves Bissouma is their central pivot. I hope we sign him and Emi Buendia. If only Arteta could let go of his obsessive micro management, our team could create, dominate and dance their way to a new ‘invincibles’ style team. Arteta forgot to bring Man City’s creative dance when he came and, if he sacrifices the entanglement that obsessive control brings, maybe he will reach his goal.
