Arsenal kicked off 2025 with a 3–1 victory over Brentford, but the road to closing the gap to Liverpool isn't getting any easier with a trip to Brighton and Hove Albion up next. To make matters worse, Mikel Arteta won't have his star right back available for selection.
Arsenal Team News: Star Defender Suspended for Trip to Brighton and Hove Albion
Jurrien Timber will miss the trip to the American Express Stadium on Jan. 4 after the Dutchman picked up a yellow card in the 17th minute against Brentford. The yellow card means Timber must serve a one-game suspension for accumulation.
Timber's been an integral part of Arsenal's defense since returning from an ACL injury, especially in the wake of Ben White's absence.
