Liverpool are hosting Brighton tonight in a Premier League meeting at Anfield as Jurgen Klopp’s Reds try to stay in touch with league leaders Manchester City. Liverpool followed a disappointing run of results with back-to-back wins over Tottenham and West Ham to stay in the title picture, but cannot afford any slip-ups tonight against an improving Brighton team. 

Graham Potter has seen his side go three games without defeat, lifting them seven points clear of the bottom three ahead of tonight’s matches. The surprise win over Spurs last time out has lifted spirits on the south coast but Anfield has not been a happy hunting ground in recent years and this will be a stern test against a seemingly resurgent Liverpool.
