The Seagulls needed a stoppage-time winner to maintain their 100% start last weekend, but few would begrudge them all three points on a day when their midfield dominated the Red Devils.
It will probably be a different story at the Emirates Stadium, however, as Arsenal’s engine room is far superior to anything Albion have faced this term.
Billy Gilmour, who ran the show against United, may have left for Napoli before this game kicks off. Although Carlos Baleba looked good enough to start regularly in his place when he came on at the Amex Stadium.
Another area of concern for the visitors will be the high defensive line that they held when United had possession, which Erik ten Hag’s men eventually exploited for Amad Diallo’s equaliser.
It would be detrimental to use that too often against the Gunners, who will surely not take as long as United did to figure it out. Arsenal’s wide players have the pace to threaten the space behind and Kai Havertz possesses the ability to time his runs from deep too.
