Brighton v Arsenal Line-ups: Arteta Names a Side Without Saliba! Mikel Arteta has made some significant changes to his starting XI as Arsenal take on Brighton at the Amex Stadium today. The Gunners boss has surprisingly left out young centre-back William Saliba from his team, opting instead for experienced duo Rob Holding and Kieran Tierney. Meanwhile, Eddie Howe's Brighton have also made a few tweaks to their lineup, with Argentine midfielder Alexis Mac Allister returning from injury to start against the Premier League leaders. The Seagulls will be looking to cause an upset against the Gunners, who are still reeling from last weekend's surprise defeat to Manchester City. For Arsenal, there is no place for Saliba in Arteta's team, with the 20-year-old France international dropping down to the bench. In his place, Holding starts alongside Tierney at centre-back, while William Ekong and Nuno Tavares continue their run of matches on either side of them. Up front, Alexandre Lacazette leads the line for Arsenal once again, flanked by Bukayo Saka and Emile Smith Rowe. Martin Odegaard and Granit Xhaka provide the midfield creativity, with Aaron Ramsdale starting in goal ahead of Bernd Leno. Brighton's lineup is more settled, with Lewis Dunk and Adam Webster forming a strong partnership at centre-back. Moises Caicedo starts alongside Mac Allister in midfield, while Leandro Trossard and Solly March lead the attack alongside star man Neal Maupay. The game gets underway at 4:30 pm GMT, and we'll have all the action from the Amex Stadium right here on OneFootball!#Eddie_Howe #Mikel_Arteta #Rob_Holding #Lewis_Dunk #Kieran_Tierney #William_Saliba #Alexis_Mac_Allister #Adam_Webster #Moises_Caicedo #Neal_Maupay
