"After a morale-boosting win over Inter in the Champions League on Tuesday, Liverpool are aiming to transfer that good feeling over to the Premier League. Dominik Szoboszlai's 88th-minute penalty was enough for victory at San Siro, though the Reds' European triumph was not the talk of the town at full-time. Liverpool's win was overshadowed by the situation regarding Mohamed Salah, whose explosive outburst after last week's 3-3 draw with Leeds United saw him dropped from the squad for the trip to Milan."
"The Reds sit level on points with the Seagulls but two places below them, and know a victory could propel them back into the top-four picture. But Brighton have Champions League ambitions of their own and will want to return to winning ways in the top flight, after following up a four-game unbeaten run in the division with a defeat to Aston Villa and a draw with West Ham."
"The Opta supercomputer has run 10,000 data-led simulations, and Liverpool are expected to return to winning ways on Merseyside, having failed to register a home league win since a 2-0 triumph over Aston Villa on November 1. Slot's team are handed a 51.3% probability of claiming all three points, compared to Brighton's 23.9%. The likelihood of a draw is given a 24.7% chance of happening."
Liverpool beat Inter in the Champions League thanks to Dominik Szoboszlai's 88th-minute penalty and aim to carry that momentum into the Premier League. Mohamed Salah's explosive outburst after the 3-3 draw with Leeds led to his omission for the Milan trip and leaves his selection for the Brighton match uncertain. Liverpool sit level on points with Brighton but two places below; a win could boost top-four hopes. Brighton maintain Champions League ambitions and have recently mixed results. Opta simulations give Liverpool a 51.3% win probability, Brighton 23.9%, and a 24.7% chance of a draw.
