Brighton's three-game unbeaten streak vs Liverpool

Liverpool will hope to return to winning ways as they travel to face Brighton in the Premier League’s early Saturday kick-off.

The Reds were beaten in midweek by Inter Milan to end their long unbeaten run at home, but remain on a seven-match win streak in domestic terms and victory at the Amex Stadium would close the gap to Man City at the top of the league to just three points.

Brighton have only scored once in their last four games, losing them all, including a defeat to Newcastle last time out but do have a surprisingly good recent record against the Reds - unbeaten in their last three fixtures against Jurgen Klopp’s men, winning one and drawing two of those games. Graham Potter’s side are gunning for a first home victory since Boxing Day, and the sides drew 2-2 at Anfield earlier in the season, but Liverpool are eager to pile the pressure on Man City in the title race, ahead of their game against Crystal Palace on Monday night.

67 mins: Brighton are awarded a free kick for a handball from Thiago in the middle of the pitch. There’s a chorus of ironic cheers from the Brighton fans. Marc Cucurella is given the ball but Fabinho pushes high up the pitch and nicks it off him. He plays in inside to Diogo Jota but he gets closed down and loses possession on the edge of the penalty area.

64 mins: There’s a bit of frustration on the faces of the Brighton players now. They work the ball up the pitch and Alisson comes running forward to claim it. He grabs hold of the ball but runs out of the penalty area. He’s smart about it though and sticks out his arms to keep the ball inside and avoid any punishment.

Jurgen Klopp makes a couple of changes. Thiago Alcantara and Diogo Jota are brought on in place of Naby Keita and Mo Salah,

54 mins: There’s a nice contest developing between Veltman and Diaz. Veltman sees that the ball is about to come up to the Liverpool forward and tries to nip in front of him. Diaz feels a bit of contact and goes down winning Liverpool a free kick.

Naby Keita and Yves Bissouma then come together in the middle of the pitch. Bissouma just taps Keita in the head as they tussle shoulder-to-shoulder and Keita hobbles away convincing the referee to award Liverpool another free kick. Bissouma is outraged and throws the ball away in anger earning himslef a yellow card.

51 mins: Adam Lallana is down for Brighton. He went to ground just as Alisson was looking to take a goal kick. The medics come on to check him out and it seems as though he’s tweaked a muscle or something.

He only came on a half-time and now has to be replaced. Pascal Gross comes on and the good news for Lallana is that he’s able to walk off the pitch by himself.

48 mins: Chance! Brighton quickly move it up the right side and a pass comes into the box for Neal Maupay. He holds it up well and draws in the two Liverpool centre-backs before feeding it across to Leandro Trossard. It’s a great opportunity for Trossard to score but he laces his effort well over the goal!

Joel Matip is the first ever Cameroonian to win Premier League player of the month, while he’s the first central defender to win the award since his teammate Virgil van Dijk in December 2018.

In February he played every game for Liverpool and the Reds conceded just once. Today he’s already got an assist, setting up Luis Diaz’s opener with a chipped pass over the top.
