This year sees Manchester City try to defend their crown and claim a historic fourth title in succession. Pep Guardiola’s all-conquering City, who also won the Champions League and FA Cup last season, will have to see off Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester United, Liverpool and the rest to claim an unprecedented sixth league title in seven years.

If Arsenal hold on to this clean sheet, Raya will become the first Spanish goalkeeper to keep a clean sheet in five consecutive Premier League away starts, and the ninth different keeper to do so overall in the competition (Ederson was the last to do so between February-April 2022).

There's a quick check for a penalty after Adingra goes to ground under pressure from Rice on the edge of the box, but there's nothing in it. Instead, Gross is allowed to take the corner, but it's cleared by the first man.

Buonanotte races forward to close down White and hurts himself in the process as the right-back catches him while making the clearance. The substitute is able to get back up without needing treatment though.

Brighton are still struggling to make any sort of impact in the final third, and are starting to drop deeper into their shape. Pedro is pressing alone up top, and even when he wins it back, there's nowhere to go.

GOOD SAVE! Arsenal break quickly, and Trossard leads the way down the left wing. He drives towards the edge of the box, and it looks like his shot is going to trickle over the line, but Verbruggen gets down in time to tip it wide.
