Brighton vs Liverpool Match Preview

Brighton face Liverpool for the 10th round of the English Premier League at the American Express Community Stadium.

In the previous round, Brighton prevailed 2-1 over Aston Villa after a solid performance. They managed to open the scoreline in the first quarter of the match, and Aston Villa found the equalizer at the begging of the second half. However, Brighton kept pushing and scored the winning goal at the 56th minute of the game.

With these three points, Brighton got back on the winning ways after 6 rounds, reaching a total of 9 points, sitting at the 16th place of the standings.

Liverpool had an amazing performance as well in the previous round, prevailing 3-0 in the derby against Leicester City. They entered the pitch strong and scored twice in the first half. Taking full advantage of their lead, they managed to hold the score till the end of the match, and they extended their lead to 3 goals in the dying minutes. After 9 rounds in the league, they have a total of 20 points, alongside Tottenham, sitting at the top of the standings.

In their midweek tasks, Liverpool played for the 4th round in the Champions League group-stage and unfortunately for them, they suffered a 2-0 defeat against Atalanta after a very bad performance.

Brighton comes from a very big win and this gave a huge motivation boost to their players, in their fight to extend their presence in the top level of English football. On the other hand, Liverpool will seek all three points to remain at the top of the standings. I expect some goals in this match. The hosts usually score with ease on their performances, even when they don't win, while the visitors have undoubtedly a lot of quality on their attack. Over 2.5 goals to be scored is my call for this one, offered at decent 1.60 odds with Betshop.
