Ainsley Maitland-Niles (Saka, 90) - On for Saka who limped off with an injury. Getty
BRIGHTON RATINGS: Robert Sanchez 7 - The Spanish goalkeeper didn’t have much to deal with but saved Arsenal’s biggest chance when Smith-Rowe struck towards the near post. Getty
Dan Burn 7 - Had some moments of trouble against Bukayo Saka but overall adjusted well with a solid performance. Reuters
Lewis Dunk 7 - Dominated both Arsenal’s centre-forwards and was quick to clear the danger from balls coming into the box. Getty
Shane Duffy 7 - Looked calm in Brighton’s back three that got the better of the Gunners’ attack. Getty
Marc Cucurella 8 - A positive display defensively but was also one of Brighton’s best sparks going forward. Found space behind Tomiyasu on a number of occasions and delivered dangerous balls into the box. Getty
Jakub Moder 7 - A bright display from an energetic Moder who broke up the play and helped quickly transition Brighton attacks. Getty
Adam Lallana 7 - Elegant in the middle of the park with astute turns and incisive play to get his side on the front foot. Reuters
Pascal Gross 7 - Dangerous on the ball and threatened the Arsenal backline with a number of passes that forced the defence to be on alert. AFP
Joel Veltman 6 - Could have been more accurate with passing at times but a positive performance overall. Worked well with Shane Duffy to prevent danger from the right flank. Reuters
Leandro Trossard 6 - Unafraid to test the goalkeeper but just one of Trossard’s shots from six hit the target. Tricky to pick up on the ball as always. Getty
Neal Maupay 6 - Agonisingly close to getting the winning goal before Aaron Ramsdale intervened. Could have done better with a header that went over the bar. AFP
SUBS: Alexis Mac Allister (Moder, 78) - Positive on the ball but unlucky overall to not find a route to the Arsenal goal. Reuters
Solly March (Gross, 84) - On for the final moments where Brighton looked most likely to score. Getty
ARSENAL RATINGS: Aaron Ramsdale 8 - Arsenal have their goalkeeper to thank after a sublime intervention stopped what would have been a certain goal from Neal Maupay. Ramsdale dealt with everything comfortably and was well deserving of yet another clean sheet. Getty
Takehiro Tomiyasu 5 - Carelessness almost cost Arsenal the game in a tough test against Marc Cucurella. Tomiyasu has to take better care of the ball in future games. Getty
Ben White 7 - The former Brighton defender enjoyed a good performance on a return to the Amex Stadium. The centre-back was flawless for the most part and was often the player who cleared the danger first. PA
Gabriel 7 - A promising display alongside White and, most importantly, no mistakes in moments of pressure from the home side. The centre-backs were vital for Mikel Arteta's side. Reuters
Kieran Tierney 6 - A fair defensive performance helped steer a Cucurella cross away from the goal, but the Scotland international will know he has much more to offer when going forward. Getty
Thomas Partey 6 - Could have done more to control the midfield battle where the Gunners seemed to struggle for most of the game. Created Arsenal’s best chance that Smith-Rowe failed to convert. PA
Albert Sambi Lokonga 6 - Sometimes slow in transition which didn’t help relieve pressure. Didn’t seem to add anything different to Thomas Partey with both playing cautiously. Getty
Bukayo Saka 7 - The England international threatened Brighton early on and was positive with the ball. It looked like his team mates weren’t on his wave length at times. Getty
Martin Odegaard 5 - A bad day at the office for Odegaard who seemed to constantly give the ball away. PA
Emile Smith-Rowe 6 - The academy graduate played better when he was moved into the 10 but he has to do much better with his chance that went straight at Robert Sanchez. Reuters
Pierre Emerick-Aubameyang 6 - Struggled to get service in a game where the most space he was presented with was when he was offside. Getty
SUBS: Nicolas Pepe (Odegaard, 63) 6 – A positive substitution but Pepe didn't get on the ball enough when introduced. Getty
Alexandre Lacazette (Aubameyang 72) - Lacazette was introduced and found out why Aubameyang was isolated. Brighton got the better of both strikers today. PA
