The Reds could nab the second place away from Man United if they win, but they will need to get past a competitive Brighton side that has pulled off some stunners recently.

What is Liverpool and Brighton's form ahead of this game?

Liverpool will face Brighton while on a two-game winning streak. Both of those games ended in similar 3-1 scores against Tottenham and West Ham, which saw them climb back to the top three teams in the league. The Reds will try to begin a new unbeaten streak at home after losing their last game at Anfield against Burnley a couple of weeks back.

Brighton make it to Anfield on a three-game streak without a loss. Two of those games ended in similar 1-0 wins for the Seagulls, one against Leeds and the other one against Tottenham. Their draw during that run came against Fulham (0-0), a game that kept a safe distance between the blue and white side and The Cottagers in their battle to avoid relegation.

What is Liverpool and Brighton's current position in the 2020-21 EPL season?

Liverpool enter this game in third place of the Premier League. Their record prior to this match shows eleven wins, seven draws, and three losses. During the course of the season, Liverpool have scored 43 times, while their defense has conceded 24 times, mainly due to the several injury absences the team has suffered. Mohamed Salah is the team's top scorer with 15 goals.

Brighton will make it to Anfield in 17th place, seven points ahead of the relegation zone. Graham Potter's men have only won four games this season, with nine draws and eight losses adding up to their tally. The team has found the back of the net 23 times, but their defense has conceded 29 goals, which has not helped their cause very much. The team's top scorer up to this point is Neal Maupay with seven goals.
