ArsenalĀ vsĀ BrightonĀ LIVE!
Arsenal are looking to book their place in the quarter-finals of theĀ Carabao CupĀ as they host Brighton tonight, with starts handed to teenage duo Max Dowman and Andre Harriman-Annous. The Gunners are in superb form having notched up their seventh successive victory at the weekend that saw them open up a four-point gap at the Premier League summit. Mikel Artetaās dominant set-piece specialists also boast a 100 per cent record in the Champions League and brushed aside third-tier Port Vale in the last round of this competition.
Arsenal have won 11 of their 13 matches so far this season, conceding just three times in that span – and only once from open play. Arteta will hope that the 10 changes made to his team this evening will not disrupt that momentum, with a full debut for Piero Hincapie in defence and Mikel Merino given the captainās armband.
The Seagulls have endured a rather inconsistent start to the league season but won 6-0 in back-to-back Carabao Cup rounds to reach this stage. They hand a first start to Charalampos Kostoulas tonight in one of six changes to the side beaten by Manchester United. Follow Arsenal vs Brighton live below, with expert analysis from Simon Collings at the Emirates Stadium.

Ethan Nwaneri makes exit decision
Ethan Nwaneri reportedly wants to stay and fight for his place in theĀ ArsenalĀ team for the remainder of the season. The 18-year-oldĀ has attracted attentionĀ fromĀ BournemouthĀ this month, with the Premier League side eager to sign him on loan until the end of this campaign following the sale of Antoine Semenyo to Manchester City.
There is a sense that a temporary move would benefit Nwaneri given his lack of playing time this season. The Hale End academy product has been left out of the last few matchday squads after seeing his playing time decrease drastically compared to last season. He has made only six Premier League appearances since scoring four league goals in 26 matches last term.

With the likes of Martin Odegaard, Mikel Merino, Eberechi Eze and now injury returnee Kai Havertz ahead of the youngster in the pecking order, some believe Nwaneri needs a move to continue his progression. However, Arsenal do not want to sell the player due to his obvious talent.
The Independent reports Nwaneri feels he can learn more by being part of a serious title challenge, meaning he is happy to remain patient and assess his situation at the end of the season, when he may well have a league trophy to his name.
