The Gunners' 83 goals scored this season is only bettered by Man City with 89 goals and their 39 goals conceded is only bettered by Man City with 31 and Newcastle with 29.
Arteta's side have two wins, two draws and one defeat in their last five matches but notably two wins in their last two as they look to pile pressure on Man City at the top of the table. Arsenal are coming off a 0-2 win over Newcastle and will fancy their chances of grabbing another important win on Sunday.
The Seagulls are very likely to earn at least a Europa League slot for next season whilst still harbouring outside hopes of Champions League football. From 333 matches played, they have 16 wins, 7 draws and just the 10 defeats.
Their 63 goals scored this season is good enough to be the league fifth best attack while their 45 goals conceded is the joint-seventh-best defence. Roberto De Zerbi's side have three wins and two defeats in their last five matches and are coming into this fixture on the back of a shock 1-5 defeat to Everton last weekend.

Arsenal boasts a rounded attack where they like to hold possession, but the majority of their attacking freedom comes along the flanks with Martinelli having 15 goals and 5 assists, Saka 13 goals and 11 assists along with attacking midfielder Ødegaard who has 15 goals and 7 assists all contributing to an excellent season for The Gunners.
Nottingham operates an aggressive style of defending which leads them to giving up fouls in dangerous areas, which isn’t good when they aren’t very effective at defending set-pieces.
Their main attacking threat and star man is Brennan Johnson who has 8 goals and 3 assists this season and Morgan Gibbs White who has 5 goals and 7 assists this season. Without those two in particularly they would be already relegated.
They have conceded 11 goals in their last five league matches an average of 2.2 goals per game which suggests they have become more vulnerable at the back in recent weeks albeit four of those goals were against Man City.
Arsenal will be looking to pile any sort of pressure they can on Man City who play on Sunday. If Arsenal do not win at the weekend their title challenge will be over, and if they win their faint hopes will remain.
Expect them to do the job and win before Man City make the win pointless one day later.
