Liverpool Football Stadium - Anfield
Liverpool vs Brighton is the kind of football match that fans of both sides have been waiting for. Andoni Iraola’s team arrive at Anfield full of belief after a wild 4-3 win over Villarreal in the Champions League. Fabian Hurzeler’s side, though, come with an even longer winning streak, and they have not dropped a point in their last five games.
Preview: Liverpool vs Brighton
This game brings together two teams who attack with real pace and little fear. Liverpool are coming off a busy midweek in Europe and must recover quickly, while Brighton have enjoyed a smooth run of results across several competitions. Anfield will be loud, and the home crowd will expect a reaction after the heavy loss at Manchester City earlier this month. Brighton will see this as a big chance to show that their recent results are no accident. Add a long list of injuries on the home side, and the stage is set for a tense and open afternoon.
Liverpool have taken three wins from their last five games in all competitions, with one draw and one loss. The loss was the toughest one, a 3-0 defeat at the Etihad against Manchester City. Since then, the Reds have picked themselves up with a 2-1 league win over Brentford and a big 6-3 win against LASK in Europe. Over those five matches, they scored seven goals but let in nine, which tells you that Iraola’s side is exciting to watch but not always safe at the back.
Brighton, on the other hand, have won all five of their latest games. They scored 14 goals and conceded only three in that time. The latest result was a 5-0 Premier League win over Crystal Palace, and before that they beat FK Kauno Zalgiris 4-0 in the Conference League. They also knocked out Arsenal 3-0 and Manchester United 3-2 in the Carabao Cup. No team in the league can match that kind of form right now, and Hurzeler will be thrilled with how his players have clicked.

Prediction
This looks like a game that could go either way, and it will probably be decided by who defends better in the key moments. Liverpool have the home crowd and the quality to turn a game quickly, but the injury list is long and their back line has been shaky. Brighton arrive with five straight wins and plenty of goals, and they will not be scared of Anfield. Expect an open, noisy match with chances for both teams. In the end, Liverpool’s home strength and big-match experience should be just enough.
