Gunners eye eighth straight win to reach the quarter-finals

The stage is set at the Emirates Stadium as Arsenal welcome Brighton in the Carabao Cup Round of 16 tonight.

Mikel Arteta’s side, in red-hot form, are targeting their eighth consecutive victory after a weekend win that extended their Premier League lead to four points. The Gunners have been dominant this season — unbeaten in Europe and conceding just three goals in 13 games, only one from open play. After comfortably dispatching Port Vale in the previous round, Arsenal now aim to continue their fine run.

Arteta is expected to rotate his squad, with youngsters like Ethan Nwaneri and 15-year-old Max Dowman likely to feature. William Saliba and Gabriel Martinelli are unavailable, while Declan Rice, Bukayo Saka, and Riccardo Calafiori have been declared fit if required.

Brighton, meanwhile, have had a mixed league campaign but stormed into this round after back-to-back 6–0 wins. However, they’ll be without Kaoru Mitoma, James Milner, Joel Veltman, and Brajan Gruda due to injuries.

Prediction:
Arsenal remain one of the most efficient teams this season — solid defensively and ruthless from set-pieces. Even with changes, Arteta’s men should have enough quality to overcome Brighton’s challenge.

Expected result: Arsenal 2–0 Brighton
