Sports Mole takes an in-depth look at how Arsenal could line up for Sunday's Premier League clash with Brighton & Hove Albion.

Gabriel Martinelli, Alexandre Lacazette and Martin Odegaard are all pushing for recalls to Arsenal's attack for Sunday's Premier League clash with Brighton & Hove Albion.

The Gunners beat Crystal Palace 3-1 in midweek to take their race for European football down to the final day.

Martinelli scored a crucial late goal a little over 10 minutes after being introduced from the bench at Selhurst Park, with Odegaard claiming the assist for that goal to make it 2-1.

However, Nicolas Pepe is in great form thanks to four goals in his last five games, while Mikel Arteta is expected to stick with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Bukayo Saka.

That could mean Emile Smith Rowe making way for Odegaard, who is playing his final match for Arsenal as things stand as he prepares to return to parent club Real Madrid.

Elsewhere, Granit Xhaka was fit enough to play a part from the bench in midweek and should take over from Mohamed Elneny in central midfield.

David Luiz and Hector Bellerin are Arsenal's only known fitness doubts, while goalkeeper Mathew Ryan is also ruled out due to the terms of his loan arrangement with Brighton.

Arsenal possible starting lineup: Leno; Chambers, Holding, Gabriel, Tierney; Xhaka, Partey; Pepe, Odegaard, Saka; Aubameyang
