Liverpool vs Brighton preview

Liverpool host Brighton four days after beating them on their own patch in the Carabao Cup.

And there’s good reason to think they can claim another victory at Anfield on Saturday.

Arne Slot’s side have won 12 of their opening 14 games of the 2024-25 campaign, losing just once against Nottingham Forest in September.

Victory for the Reds would see Slot become the Liverpool manager with the most wins in their first 10 top-flight games.

The Merseysiders relinquished top spot to Manchester City when drawing 2-2 with Arsenal last weekend but sit just a point adrift and boast the best form in the division over the last five games.

They also boast the best defensive record in the Premier League having conceded five times, and only twice on home turf.

Only Manchester City have conceded fewer shots on target this season while nobody has a better xGC (expected goals conceded) than Liverpool’s 7.08.

And they’ll need to show that defensive solidarity again this weekend against a Brighton side who’ve netted 16 league goals and rank fourth for most attempts at goal (136).

The Seagulls also have a decent record against Liverpool having won two of their last five meetings in all competitions and scored first in four of the last six meetings.

Assist

No Liverpool player has created more chances at Anfield in the Premier League this season than Trent Alexander-Arnold.

The England international has created 10 opportunities in four home matches – which is more than Diogo Jota, Darwin Nunez and Luis Diaz combined.

He’s also responsible for the most successful crosses with only Mohamed Salah having had more touches in the opposition final third at Anfield.

He’s easily had the most efforts on goal with 27, of which a whopping 17 of those were on target – averaging a shot every 29 minutes.

Salah has had more than DOUBLE the number of touches in the penalty area than his nearest colleague and boasts nine goals in 16 games against Brighton – including three last season.
