Arsenal vs Brighton form
The English League Cup is only at the bottom of Arsenal's priority list this season. However, this is also considered the least competitive arena, so the Emirates team can still completely conquer it if favorable.
In previous years, when the squad was not deep enough, coach Mikel Arteta would probably have to consider carefully. But at the present time, with a strong squad in both quantity and quality, the Spanish strategist can comfortably arrange more than 2 combative squads.
Therefore, the North London giants are considered to be among the top candidates for every tournament they participate in. In the League Cup, The Gunners will create opportunities for stars who have less playing time such as Kepa, Mosquera, Hincapie, Norgaard, Nwaneri... These are all bright faces, capable of being in the official squad of many teams in the Premier League.
Since 1993, Arsenal have not won the English League Cup again. Last season, Arteta and his team reached the semi-finals but lost to Newcastle. This season will be a great opportunity for the Gunners to quench their thirst for the "soft drink cup" after more than 3 decades of missing out.
Arsenal's current form is almost flawless. After 13 appearances, the Emirates team has won 11, drawn 1 and lost only 1. Despite possessing quality attacking faces, the launching pad for success for the Gunners must certainly be the defense.
The record of conceding only 4 goals in 13 matches is truly impressive. In the last 5 appearances in both the Premier League and Champions League, goalkeeper David Raya has not had to pick the ball out of the net once. In fact, the Spanish goalkeeper has only had to face 5 shots on target.

While Arsenal have been consistent, Brighton have been unable to do the same. The Seagulls' five-match unbeaten run was cut short last weekend by a 4-2 defeat at Old Trafford by Man United. As a result of the defeat, Brighton dropped to 13th place, missing the chance to close in on the top five.
Brighton made history in the League Cup this season by becoming the first team to win two consecutive rounds by a margin of six goals or more, with victories over lower-league Oxford United and Barnsley both coming by a 6-0 scoreline.
However, the journey of coach Fabian Hurzeler and his team will likely soon have to stop. In addition to the unlucky draw against Arsenal, the away team also showed bad luck in the League Cup arena. Since the 1978/79 season until now, Brighton has not passed the 4th round.
