Liverpool have won just one of their previous five Premier League matches
Brighton have lost just once in the league since the end of October
Recommended bet: Over 3.5 goals
Liverpool sealed a surprise win over Inter Milan in the Champions League during the week, a result which is even more remarkable given their domestic form.
Since the start of November, the Reds have won only two Premier League matches and they trail leaders Arsenal by 10 points, despite winning their opening five league games.
Brighton find themselves in eighth spot, level on points with Liverpool, but having lost fewer matches than them this term.
They have won just one point from the previous six available, however, something that Fabian Hurzeler will be keen to improve on at Anfield.

Team news
Arne Slot will be without defender Giovanni Leoni and forward Cody Gakpo due to injury. Conor Braddley is suspended for the clash.
The future of Mohamed Salah is up in the air following his staggering outburst after being left on the bench against Leeds last time out in the league.
Will Slot give him game time? Who knows, after the Egyptian king was left at home for the trip to the San Siro.
Brighton will not be able to call upon Adam Webster, Solly March and Stefanos Tzimas for this match due to various injury problems.

Prediction
Liverpool’s Jekyll and Hyde form this season has been perplexing to say the least. In the Premier League recently, the Reds have been like a rabbit caught in the headlights.
When European fixtures roll around, however, Slot’s men have been solid, defeating Inter, Real Madrid and Eintracht Frankfurt, though they did suffer a 4-1 loss to PSV Eindhoven a few weeks ago here at Anfield.
Brighton have impressed this season and there is no reason why they cannot get a result at Anfield on Saturday.
Given the history between the teams, it could be goals galore on Merseyside this weekend.
