Prediction: Brighton 0-3 Liverpool
Liverpool has too much quality for the likes of Brighton to challenge them. With 4 successive defeats, the Seagulls look a deflated bunch.
We see Liverpool going all guns blazing to keep their title hopes alive.
Players to watch out for: Allister, March, Salah and Diaz.
