For the final time in 2022, Arsenal will be in Premier League action as they face Brighton and Hove Albion on Saturday evening.
Any fears that the six-week World Cup break would disrupt the Gunners' momentum were eventually dismissed in their first competitive fixture following the restart on Boxing Day as they produced an impressive second half display to come from behind and beat West Ham United.
As a result, Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta will no doubt be hopeful of more of the same against the Seagulls, especially with Manchester City and Newcastle United hot on their heels in what is turning out to be a surprising Premier League title race this season.
