Ethan Nwaneri and Bukayo Saka score second-half goals as a youthful Arsenal side beat Brighton to reach the quarter-finals of the Carabao Cup.

Brighton outshot Arsenal on the night, forcing Kepa into six saves. First-choice keeper David Raya has faced just five shots since September. It wasn’t entirely convincing, but Arteta can at least take solace from his side’s spot in the quarterfinals.

Mikel made 10 changes for the contest, including a new centre-back pairing of Piero Hincapie, making his first start for us, and Cristhian Mosquera. The duo helped us to a sixth straight clean sheet and our manager was thrilled to see us keep our latest shutout.

Brighton predicted lineup vs. Arsenal (4-2-3-1): Steele; Veltman, Coppola, Dunk, De Cuyper; Ayari, Baleba; Minteh, Gómez, Watson; Welbeck.
