Arteta's men edge one point clear of Liverpool, who face Manchester United on Sunday, and champions Manchester City at the top of the table.
Arsenal moved to the top of the Premier League as goals from Bukayo Saka, Kai Havertz and Leandro Trossard added the gloss to another mature performance from the Gunners to beat Brighton 3-0 on Saturday.Mikel Arteta’s men are one point clear of Liverpool, who face Manchester United on Sunday, and champions Manchester City at the top of the table.
Arteta could even afford the luxury of replacing Saka just after the hour mark in perfect preparation for the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final, first leg against Bayern Munich on Tuesday.Brighton had not lost at home in 14 games in all competitions stretching back to September, but they had not met a side of Arsenal’s class on that run.
The Dutch international goalkeeper then produced a stunning save to deny Gabriel Jesus and the Brazilian headed another good chance wide from Havertz’s inviting cross.Jesus was tripped inside the area by Tariq Lamptey and the defender’s protestations that he got a touch on the ball fell on deaf ears.
Julio Enciso came closest to a response for the Seagulls with a curling effort from outside the box that David Raya did well to turn behind.
