Brighton are unbeaten in three, though that kind of buries the lede: the Seagulls have won two of those three fixtures, a 3-0 thrashing in January 2023 and a come-twice-from-behind thriller last May. Throw in a staunch 2-2 draw in October 2023, and Liverpool won’t be fancying this at all.But they have already beaten Brighton twice this season, in both league and cup at Anfield.
They’re also coming off the back of their performance of the season, against Galatasaray, in which Mo relocated his mojo. And while they lost in the FA Cup in January 2023, Liverpool did win at the Amex in the League Cup in October 2024.Yes, these two clubs usually give each other a game.
Which is probably the best place to leave this preamble, because not only is it a fool’s errand to try to unpick all of the above, these are two of the most currently unpredictable teams in the land, capable of wonder or woe on any given day. Given there has only ever been one goalless draw between these two clubs in 45 meetings, and that back in 1961, we’re hoping for some more of that sweet, sweet wonder.
