Arteta eager to avoid repeat of Rice red card against Brighton

The Gunners are just two points ahead of second-placed Manchester City and Pep Guardiola's men could be one point clear at the top of the table if they see off Nottingham Forest at the City Ground before Arsenal face the Seagulls. Last season, Rice was sent off after he received a second yellow card for delaying a restart. Arsenal were leading 1-0 before Rice's controversial dismissal but ended up dropping two points in a 1-1 draw. "I remember it very well," said Arteta as he reflected on the fixture.
