Liverpool is ranked second in the Premier League standings with 63 points after 27 matches. Jurgen Klopp's team has 19 victories, six draws, and two defeats. The Reds are trying to catch up with Manchester City, which is six points ahead. Liverpool has gained perfect momentum and won seven Premier League games in a row. The last victory happened on March 5 in a home match against West Ham United (1-0). Last Tuesday, Klopp's team played the second leg of the Champions League 1/8 finals against Inter Milan at Anfield. Playing to hold the advantage, the hosts lost 0-1 and advanced to the next round thanks to a 0-2 victory in Italy.
Liverpool hosted Brighton in the tenth round of the current Premier League draw. The game at Anfield on October 30, 2021, ended in a 2-2 draw. The Reds were leading thanks to goals from Jordan Henderson and Sadio Mane, but the Seagulls avoided defeat through the efforts of Enock Mwepu and Leandro Trossard. Liverpool's defeat to Inter shouldn't be misleading. The Reds played the score and tried to spend as little energy as possible. And they will be very motivated to win the upcoming game. The Seagulls are not as strong now as they were at the beginning of the season. Potter's team noticeably slowed down due to defensive failures. In the last four rounds, Brighton conceded nine goals, making at least two blunders in each of the games. Liverpool's powerful attack will take advantage of these problems and extend the team’s winning streak.
Prediction for the match: Liverpool to win and score over 1.5 goals
