Liverpool vs. Brighton has a way of being far more complicated than it should be. The key matchup, as always, will be how Brighton's midfield manages to disrupt Liverpool's press, specifically Pascal Groß against Alexis Mac Allister. Brighton's form has been patchy, to say the least, with a 10-10-10 record that screams inconsistency, and they're coming off a dispiriting 2-1 loss to Spurs. Liverpool, on the other hand, just put five past Sparta Prague in the Europa League. But here's the thing: Brighton always gives them problems. Roberto De Zerbi has a knack for finding weaknesses. Still, Anfield on a Sunday afternoon is a different beast. Liverpool wins 2-1.
