Brighton secured a massive three to zero victory over Arsenal. Fabian Hurzeler urged his squad to stay grounded after the result. Punter interest in the Seagulls will now surge.

Brighton march on

The Seagulls made history by beating the reigning champions at home for the third straight season. Chema Andres scored on his first league start. Pascal Gross and Charalampos Kostoulas also found the back of the net in a dominant display.

Hurzeler praised the intensity and togetherness of his players. The team won possession in the final third nine times against the Gunners. This high press caused endless problems for the visitors.

Market reaction

Brighton have now scored sixteen goals in their opening five matches. This incredible scoring form makes them much shorter in various outright markets. Bookmakers will surely reassess their top four and title credentials.

Punters backing Brighton before the season will be very pleased. The team showed they can compete with the absolute best in the country. Maintaining this momentum after the international break is the next big test for the club.
