BHA v Arsenal - FA Cup 4th Round - Score Predictor Thread

BHA (7th) will play Arsenal (6th - Premier League) at The Amex on Saturday in an eagerly awaited FA Cup match
Our record in recent years, 2011/2012 & 2010/2011 is pretty good having reached the 5th round on both occasions. However, can the Seagulls really beat Arsenal?

Albion's recent form has been good with 3 wins, 2 draws & no defeats in 2013. Arsenal are hardly out of form either, with a 5-1 thrashing of West Ham achieved last night.

Brighton's record against Arsenal is woeful. It took us until our 10th game against the Gunners to secure our first win. The record stands at Arsenal wins 9, draws 2 & Albion victories 2. But hey they are the Premiership team & all the pressure will be on Wenger & his players in this game?

As for the Score Predictor well played to the 25 who correctly predicted the Blackburn 1-1 draw.

The key mover is Oz Mike who has moved up to second place.

As ever, use your head. You decide ............................................

Shite, wanted to go 3-1 arsenal but accidentally hit other, so I'll have to go 5-1

B.H.A 1 - 3 Arse

Oh well another dream ends. I was sort of hoping for a 30 year anniversary Final V Man U and this time Smith does score (CMS that is)

Can't see us getting past them on either side's current form 1-3 to the gooners I am afraid.

But I am crap at predictions........................................

Well we played badly on Tuesday and Arsenal destroyed West Ham last night, football logic dictates this will be a cagey 0-0.

6/1 to Arsenal..but before i tick the box can stupendor post what he thinks lol

Brighton 1 - Arsenal 5

Brighton 3-2 Arsenal.

So far, 25% of voters believe Brighton will win this one.
Hope you lot are right!

1-0
Spanish Dave to play hero again by scoring another late pen

One of the hardest scorelines to predict this year I think ,I've not got one right all season so here goes

Albion 2 Arsenal 2

1-0 to the Albion, El-Abd to score.

Albion 2 Arsenal 3

Overconfidence in BHA as usual but, Brighton go 1 up 10mins before half time, go a second up immediately after the break (47th min). Let one in within 5 mins (sloppy handling by ElAbd or Greer) and then keep us all hanging on by not putting the game to bed and defending like crazy against an onslaught, only to break down in tears of joy at the final whistle!

3-1 Albion, Vicente to round up the scoring Had a dream this happened the other night! Heard it here first

Tough call but can't see this being goalless, can see us scaping a draw at the Amex only for a bit of a dicking at the Library in the replay.

I've not only not got a prediction correct, but all my predictions have been massively out. Time for my luck to change. It goes against my blue and white bias, but i'm siding with the opposition on this occasion.
1-3 to the Wengerboys

3-1 to the Arse with our goal a Spanish Dave penalty....

A hard-fought 2-2 (followed by a kicking at The Emirates).

I predict an absolute shoeing, sorry. 4 nil, can't see how we'll cope with the pace of Walcott / the Ox and the physical presence of Giroud and Podolski at all.
