Brighton & Hove Albion Women vs Arsenal Women Match Analysis & Prediction
10/05/2023 9:30 pm
Arsenal Women will be looking to move into the Champions League spots when they travel to the Broadfield Stadium to face Brighto & Hove Albion Women on Wednesday night.
The Seagulls will be in a bouyant mood after they boosted their survival hopes with a 1-0 home victory over West Ham United at the weekend.
Melissa Phillips has over seen an upturn in fortunes since being appointed Brighton manager last month, having lost just one of her four league matches in charge.
A 3-2 victory over Everton was followed by an away defeat to Liverpool, before Brighton played out an entertaining 2-2 draw against Tottenham Hotspur.
The Seagulls would have been disappointed to give up the lead on two occasions against Tottenham, but they made amends at the weekend, claiming a 1-0 victory over West Ham through Kayleigh Green’s second-half goal.
That victory moved Brighton up to ninth place and leaves them on the brink of securing their safety with five points separating them from Reading, who occupy the one and only relegation spot and have played a game more.
Although relegation looks unlikely, Phillips will be challenging her players to finish the season as strong as possible, and she will be hoping her side can spring a surprise on Wednesday as they bid to claim a third successive home win.
Arsenal responded to their Champions League semi-final exit with a narrow 1-0 victory over Leicester City last Thursday.
The Gunners may be targeting the WSL title, but their first priority will be to seal a Champions League spot with three points separating them from third-placed Manchester City, who have played two games more.
Due to their superior goal difference compared to the Citizens, Arsenal know that a win on Wednesday will move them onto the top three.
After claiming a 4-0 victory over Brighton earlier this season, Arsenal have won seven successive encounters with the Seagulls, which will provide them with inspiration ahead of their trip to West Sussex.
