Arsenal 0-0 Brighton, 22 minutes
Georginio Rutter shows his strength, shoving Myles Lewis-Skelly off the ball to win possession beyond the halfway line. Arsenal reset and reshape well, as they had to.

Bright interplay down the right from Max Dowman, Ben White and Andre Harriman-Annous works the right-back into a crossing position, but he cannot beat Jan Paul van Hecke.

Arsenal looks rather more open in midfield than usual, Christian Norgaard and Mikel Merino bypassed a little too easily so far in these opening stages.

Dowman does get a first touch in the box but is soon shut down by the imposing Jan Paul van Hecke, stepping in like a doorman to eject the youngster.
A long throw is launched into the box and Piero Hincapie and Mikel Merino are both there to contest it. The ball bounces behind off the latter’s thigh, slightly unfortunately for the hosts.

We haven’t seen too much of Max Dowman so far, with the 15-year-old working his way into the game.
Elsewhere, meanwhile, Swansea have made an excellent start – they lead Manchester City 1-0.

Another decent drive from a Brighton midfielder, Diego Gomez this time clearing it out of his feet and letting fly. Kepa Arrizabalaga watches it by as he sprawls to his right in a relatively leisurely manner.

Better from the home side. Eberechi Eze and Andre Harriman-Annous combine to provide a threat down the inside left channel, forcing Olivier Boscagli into a hurried clearance.

Another superb chance for Brighton but Stefanos Tzimas can’t find the target! The visitors break at speed after dealing with an Arsenal corner and Georginio Rutter returns the favour to the forward who set him up moments ago. Tzimas is through one-on-one but skews his effort wide of the goal.

Good chance! Tzimas picks up possession slightly deeper this time and connects with an overlapping Georginio Rutter. The Dutchman drives into the box and then against the body of Kepa, making himself big to keep it out. Rutter should really have scored.

Stefanos Tzimas is leading the line for Brighton tonight but strays too far too soon, and is flagged for offside after latching on to a forward header.
