Is Arsenal vs Brighton and Hove Albion on TV, what's the team news, what are the odds and who is the referee?

Albion have lost their last three matches to Manchester United, Leicester City and Liverpool and desperately need to reverse their fortunes at at the Emirates Stadium on Thursday night at the unusual kick-off time of 8.15pm.

The kick-off time is due to Amazon's new deal with the Premier League. Ten PL games will be played this week, kicking off at 7.30pm or 8.15pm.

Despite their recent struggles, Arsenal at the Emirates is always a tough fixture and made more difficult this time as it will be the first time Freddie Ljungberg will lead his team out on home turf.

Ljungberg was installed as interim manager following the sacking of Unai Emery. Ljungberg guided eighth placed Arsenal to an entertaining 2-2 draw at Carrow Road on Sunday and will be targeting maximum points against Graham Potter's team who have struggled on the road against the top teams this season.

Albion, who are 16th in the Premier League table, did produce a better performance at Anfield last Saturday but were undone by two first half headers from Liverpool's Virgil van Dijk in the 2-1 loss.

Last season

Last May at the Emirates the two teams battled out a 1-1 draw as Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's ninth minute penalty was cancelled out by Glenn Murray's second half spot kick. Earlier in the season on Boxing Day at the Amex Stadium, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang once again gave the Gunners an early lead but a rare strike from Albion's Jurgen Locadia ensured honours were even once more.
