-----------------------------
Brighton & Hove Albion host Liverpool at the Amex Stadium in a crucial Premier League clash, with both sides still chasing European ambitions as the season enters a decisive phase.

Team Analysis
Brighton have shown resilience in recent weeks, picking up important results and remaining competitive in mid-table. Their home form against Liverpool has been relatively strong in recent seasons, making them a difficult opponent despite inconsistency overall.

Liverpool, meanwhile, arrive fresh from a dominant Champions League victory but have struggled domestically, failing to win their last two league matches. They currently sit fifth, just a couple of points off the top four, making this a must-win fixture in their push for Champions League qualification.

Player Situation
Brighton are close to full strength, with only a couple of absentees, and are expected to rely on attacking players like Kaoru Mitoma and Danny Welbeck to trouble Liverpool’s defence.

Liverpool, however, are dealing with multiple injury concerns. Star forward Mohamed Salah is expected to miss out, along with several other players, forcing manager Arne Slot to rotate his squad after a busy European schedule.

Result Prediction
Recent meetings have been competitive, but Liverpool have already beaten Brighton twice this season and will aim to complete a league double.

However, with Brighton strong at home and Liverpool potentially fatigued and weakened by injuries, this could be another tight encounter.

Predicted Result: Brighton 1–1 Liverpool
