Arsenal's manager expressed optimism about the team’s fitness ahead of their Premier League match against Brighton, though concerns remain over key players like Ben White and Cristhian Mosquera. Bruno Guimaraes is set to make his first Premier League start for Arsenal after impressing off the bench in their recent win against Sunderland. The lineup is expected to see David Raya, Declan Rice, and Riccardo Calafiori return from rest, while Bukayo Saka, Christos Tzolis, Martin Odegaard, and Kai Havertz will likely form the attacking core. The match is scheduled for 3pm BST on Saturday, September 19, 2026, at Brighton’s Amex Stadium.

Story summary
Arsenal faces Brighton in a Premier League match with confirmed team news showing limited options for right-back due to injuries. Cristhian Mosquera remains out after a muscle injury against Aston Villa, while Martin Zubimendi filled in during Arsenal's 4-2 win over Ipswich. Ezri Konsa, who can cover at right-back, has been playing alongside Gabriel in central defense due to William Saliba’s long-term absence from a back injury. The team also anticipates the return of key players like David Raya, Declan Rice, and Riccardo Calafiori after they were rested for the Carabao Cup match against Sunderland, where Bruno Guimaraes made an impressive debut as a substitute. Arsenal's manager emphasized the need to manage player fitness carefully, especially concerning midfielder Klea Timbers’ recent extended playing time and the groin injury suffered by Ben White during their match at Stadium of Light.
