University admissions for a Law course

For my A-levels I’m not currently studying 3 traditional-essay based A-levels. I take A-level History, Politics, and art but I am interested in taking a Law course, hopefully at a top university/a Russell group uni with my predicted grades. Would universities dislike my A-level combo as I take a creative subject and would I be at a disadvantage to other applicants?
Not unless they publish a list of preferred subjects and you're not taking any of them.

e.g.

Birmingham - AAA with no subject requirements
Cardiff - AAA-ABB with no subject requirements
Durham - A*AA with no subject requirements

Basically there are no secret preferences or requirements, if they just list grades then that is what they are after.

Would it be okay if I take 2 out of 3 subjects on the preferred subject lists?
