EPL: Liverpool must avoid slip against Brighton in title quest (Preview)

Liverpool is set to host Brighton & Hove Albion at Anfield in their relentless pursuit of the English Premier League title.

Jurgen Klopp’s hopes for a trophy quadruple were dashed with a FA Cup exit at the hands of Manchester United, marking the end of an era in his tenure at Anfield.

Klopp, unfazed by the setback, remains optimistic about his team’s mental resilience, stating, “In general, the team is in an outstanding situation in the moment.”

Liverpool, trailing league leaders Arsenal by goal difference, eyes a favorable outcome in the clash between Arsenal and City, hoping it will tip the scales in their favor.

Despite Brighton’s history of drawing at Anfield, Liverpool, buoyed by easing injury concerns, feels confident in their ability to secure a victory.

Injuries have plagued Liverpool throughout the season, exacerbated by setbacks during the international break. However, Darwin Nunez’s potential return provides a much-needed boost to their attacking lineup.

Meanwhile, Brighton faces setbacks with James Milner and Joao Pedro sidelined, adding to their injury concerns alongside absentees Solly March and Kaoru Mitoma.

Evan Ferguson’s potential role shift behind Danny Welbeck could offer a tactical adjustment for Roberto De Zerbi’s side in the upcoming fixture at Anfield.
