  1. Brighton 0-2 Arsenal

    Brighton have played some nice stuff at times but they haven't been effective enough when they get into the final third.

    Arsenal will just try to manage this now and not take any risks.

    I once got so bored after a very dull first half at Villa Park that I had a hat trick of pies at half time (balti, steak, chicken and mushroom). The highlight of the match for me!

    Paul, Stourbridge

    Try a pint of Harveys Sussex Bitter with your pie. Brewed in Lewes since 1790.

    Re: 13:54. I would hope you’ve never topped a Balti Pie. What would even go on it?

    Adam

    Another Balti Pie, if I'm feeling ambitious/hungry

  3. Brighton 0-2 Arsenal

    Pressure will go back on to Liverpool after Manchester City's win earlier today and if Arsenal can close this out.

    It is relentless stuff from the title challengers.

  4. 'Huge second'

    Havertz scores Arsenal's second goalReuters

    Huge second.

    Kai Havertz does the easy bit tapping it in at the near post, but all the hard work is done before.

    Arsenal turn the ball over and Brighton cannot play out - Arsenal are aggressive and on the front-foot.

    Martin Odegaard plays a cute ball down the side of the box to Jorginho who makes the run and then Havertz taps it in.

  5. SUBSTITUTION

    Brighton 0-2 Arsenal

    Changes for both sides now as Brighton send on Facundo Buonanotte and Joao Pedro for Julio Enciso and Jakub Moder.

    For Arsenal, Leandro Trossard and Gabriel Martinelli replace Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Jesus.

    Kai Havertz

    Arsenal have the security of that second goal!

    It comes from a great move as well. Jorginho is played in on the right and he squares for Kai Havertz to flick in.

    Best pie I ever had was a Balti pie at Valley Parade in 2011. Never been topped.

    In response to Matt, I agree the pies at the Amex are top notch. Best in the league in my opinion.

    Difficult chance for Julio Enciso.

    The ball whipped into the near post area and it's headed out to Enciso who takes it on the volley - difficult chance.

  10. Brighton 0-1 Arsenal

    Carlos Baleba is applauded by the Brighton fans for trying to keep the ball in play down the right. He was unsuccessful but the home supporters appreciate that show of desire.

  11. Brighton 0-1 Arsenal

    Arsenal will undoubtedly want the comfort blanket of a second goal, particularly as Brighton do look quite dangerous when they attack.

    The Seagulls win a corner, which is headed out to Julio Enciso, who volleys high over the bar.

  12. Brighton 0-1 Arsenal

    The corner is played short for a routine off the training pitch. The ball is worked into a busy area and bounces around a bit before Gabriel Jesus' shot is blocked.

    How is Ben White not booked for simulation. So embarrassing players resort to such low levels to gain an advantage.

    Steve

    Noel: Even Rivaldo would be embarrassed with that feigning of a foul by Ben White. He fell to the ground an hour and a half after Estupinan touched him!!

  14. Brighton 0-1 Arsenal

    An awkward one for Bart Verbruggen as he pushes Martin Odegaard's shot over the bar.

    Another corner for Arsenal.

    How often do we see that happen when players try to get the opposition sent off.

    Pervis Estupian and Ben White shoulder barge initially, then it's three-to-four seconds till Ben White goes down!

    Matt: The quality of the pies has improved in the Amex since I was last here. Progress across all areas of the club.

  18. Brighton 0-1 Arsenal

    There's an off the ball incident between Ben White and Pervis Estupinan as the latter jogs back to position for an Arsenal goal kick.

    It looks like they clashed and White went down after getting caught by what appeared to be the slightest of flicks.

    Dayo at 18:40 - whoever wins the title is always the club that deserves it. If Liverpool win all their remaining games, they'll win the title and they'll have deserved to.

  20. Brighton 0-1 Arsenal

    A mistake by Oleksandr Zinchenko and Brighton have a corner. Pascal Gross' delivery is cleared to the edge of the area where Pervis Estupinan picks up the ball, before sweeping an effort well wide.
