Brighton and Hove Albion have confirmed they will be playing Arsenal in the Premier League this weekend.

The Gunners did not play against Manchester City due to a coronavirus quarantine, which ended midweek.

Some of their players had been in contact with the owner of Olymipacos, who has tested positive.

But they are all clear and the game is set to go ahead on Saturday.

Brighton issued a brief statement, which read: "[The game] remains scheduled to go ahead as planned, in line with government advice, and following consultation with the Premier League and medical advisors."

A statement from Arsenal read: "The medical advice we have received puts the risk of them developing Covid-19 at extremely low. However, we are strictly following the government guidelines which recommend that anyone coming into close contact with someone with the virus should self-isolate at home for 14 days from the last time they had contact.

"The players will remain at their homes until the 14-day period expires. Four Arsenal staff — who were sitting close to Mr Marinakis during the match — will also remain at home until the 14 days are complete.

"Everyone at Arsenal Football Club wishes Mr Marinakis a swift recovery and we look forward to the players and staff returning to work on Friday in preparation for our match at Brighton."
