This clash at the Emirates Stadium is sure to be a tightly contested affair. Arsenal managed to scrape a win against Aston Villa last weekend, but only after a string of missed chances by Villa’s Ollie Watkins.

If the Gunners aren’t sharp from the start, Brighton, who are known for their clinical play, might just take advantage.
West Ham vs. Manchester City: Although Manchester City usually doesn’t hit their stride until later in the season, they’ve won their first two matches this time around.
However, West Ham, coming off a solid 2-0 victory over Crystal Palace, could pose a real threat in Saturday’s late kickoff.
The Hammers are looking confident under Julian Lopetegui, and if City aren’t at their best, they could easily find themselves dropping points at the London Stadium.
Chelsea vs. Crystal Palace: Chelsea’s emphatic 6-2 win against Wolves last weekend had fans hopeful, but their subsequent 2-1 loss to Servette in the UEFA Conference League play-off served as a harsh reality check.
This inconsistency could prove dangerous as they face a Crystal Palace side eager to get some points on the board.
With both teams having a lot to prove, this matchup at Stamford Bridge could go either way.
