Brighton vs Liverpool: Prediction, kick off time, TV, live stream, team news, h2h results for Premier League today

Liverpool travel to an out-of-sorts Brighton in the first game of the Premier League weekend.

Jurgen Klopp’s side were perhaps somewhat fortunate to leave Anfield with all three points against West Ham and lost on the night to Inter Milan on Tuesday, although can approach this game with confidence.

As impressive as Graham Potter’s Brighton generally are, they have now lost four in a row and have tended to struggle at home as it is.

Clearly, they boast quality but have hit a sticky patch, meaning Liverpool surely approach this one as favourites.

If they are going to ramp up the pressure on Manchester City who, ironically, play Brighton’s biggest rivals Crystal Palace on Monday night, they will need all three points.

Brighton vs Liverpool is scheduled for a 12.30pm GMT kick-off on Saturday March 12, 2022.
