class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>The Reds' last game at Anfield saw their 68-match unbeaten Premier League home run come to an end but we are backing them to get back to winning ways
Liverpool welcome Brighton to Anfield in the Premier League on Wednesday evening with Jurgen Klopp’s men aiming to maintain the momentum they have gathered following back-to-back away wins in London.
Last week saw the champions end their five-game winless run with a 3-1 success at Tottenham, while Sunday saw them triumph by the same scoreline at West Ham.
Now the Merseysiders will aim to begin a new unbeaten record at home following defeat to Burnley in their last game at Anfield, a result which saw their run of nearly four years without at league loss in their own stadium end.

The Seagulls head to Anfield aiming to record their fourth away win of the season and boosted by a 1-0 success over Tottenham at the weekend.

The visitors are offered at 8/1 (9.00) , while a home win can be backed at 1/3 (1.33) .
Liverpool vs Brighton Team News
Virgil Van Dijk, Joe Gomez, Joel Matip, Fabinho and Diogo Jota are all out for Liverpool but Naby Keita and Sadio Mane could return. New signings Ozan Kabak and Ben Davies are unlikely to play much part, having both only joined the club on Monday.
The Seagulls are without Florin Andone, Tariq Lamptey and Alireza Jahanbakhsh, while Danny Wellbeck is expected to be back in training this week but not likely to feature.
Liverpool vs Brighton Preview
The champions look to be back on track after a drop in form, and while retaining their Premier League title will be difficult given they are four points behind Manchester City who have a game in hand, Klopp’s men are not ready to give up their defence just yet.
Liverpool should be too strong for Brighton side with just two wins in their last 12 games, although there could be some interest in opposing the hosts to run riot.
Seven of the last eight league games at Anfield have seen less than 3.5 goals, while Brighton have been considerably stronger on the road than they have at home.
Indeed, Potter’s men were beaten just 1-0 when they visited league leaders Man City just over two weeks ago, and backing them to keep the score down at Anfield could appeal.
Liverpool vs Brighton Tips and Predictions
Liverpool to win and under 3.5 goals is priced at 23/20 (2.15) and could be an intelligent way to back the hosts, while the more cautious option of a home victory and under 4.5 goals is available at 7/10 (1.70) .
