Arsenal are on the charge and Brighton can't win a game, so it looks like an away banker on Saturday doesn't it? But where does the Bet Builder value sit?

The Gunners are 8/111.73 get come away from The Amex with three points with Brighton 10/34.33 to end their seven-game winless run - and you have to fancy Mikel Arteta's visitors.

Even without Bukayo Saka they've got attacking options who all look in form - and we're backing one along with Brighton's main attacking threat of late in today's Bet Builder.

Leg 1: Julio Enciso 1+ shot on target

Julio Enciso landed this bet for us last time out as he continued his run of hitting the target at Aston Villa - making it now five straight games with a shot on target.

The oddsmakers have cottoned on now to the Paraguayan as Enciso is just 8/111.73 for 1+ shot on target but we'll stick with him given his form.

Arsenal don't give too much away but if anyone can test David Raya then it's Enciso.

Leg 2: Mikel Merino 1+ shot on target

Mikel Merino is becoming a growing influence on this Arsenal side and has had a nice little spell of production from his four recent starts in six games.

The Spaniard has hit the target in four of his past five games for the Gunners including a goal at Brentford.

If he keeps this up his odds will soon shorten so he's good value right now at 7/52.40 for 1+ shot on target.

Leg 3: Thomas Partey 1+ foul

Thomas Partey has given away a foul in seven of nine away games in the league this season and the fact he may have to step in at right-back makes him an even bigger candidate for a foul here.

He's started four games at right-back this season and in three of those he's had at least two fouls.

So if he does start at right-back the 6/52.20 on him for 2+ fouls is really in play, but we'll settle for the 2/91.22 on Partey for 1+ foul.
