Liverpool vs Brighton Match Prediction

Despite the distraction concerning Mohamed Salah's future, Liverpool are enjoying their best run for some time after the late Champions League victory over Inter Milan made it four games without defeat.

But the Reds are playing catch-up in the Premier League, sitting three points behind fourth and a massive 10 adrift of leaders Arsenal, so they really need to get going ahead of the crucial festive period.

Brighton are among the host of teams sitting within touching distance of the European spots, but they're also just one point ahead of 12th-place after failing to win their last two outings.

The Seagulls have won just one of their eight Premier League trips to Anfield (D2 L5) but have scored at least once on each of their last six visits.

Score Prediction: Liverpool 2-1 Brighton
