Liverpool Seek Return to Winning Ways at Brighton

Champions look to finish strong

Liverpool may already have the Premier League title wrapped up, but Arne Slot’s side will be eager to rediscover their edge as they head to Brighton for their penultimate fixture of the season. Having stormed to glory with a 5-1 dismantling of Tottenham last month, the Reds arrive on the south coast guaranteed their third successive guard of honour.

Yet recent performances have shown signs of a drop-off. A surprise defeat to Chelsea and a frustrating 2-2 draw with Arsenal—after being two goals ahead—have slightly dented the champions’ momentum. Slot will be keen for his players to sharpen their focus, particularly with fan frustrations boiling over during the Arsenal game.

Spotlight on Trent Alexander-Arnold

One of the major talking points heading into tonight’s clash is the treatment of Trent Alexander-Arnold. The departing full-back was booed at Anfield last weekend—an incident Slot is keen to move past. “It’s not something any of us want to see,” was the message from inside the camp, with efforts now focused on ending the season with unity and purpose.

Brighton’s European hopes fade

For Fabian Hurzeler’s Brighton, the match carries less weight after a weekend twist. Crystal Palace’s stunning FA Cup win over Manchester City looks to have ended Brighton’s European ambitions. Currently ninth in the table, level on points with Brentford but trailing on goal difference, their campaign risks fizzling out despite strong recent home form.

Still, with pride on the line and Monday night lights offering a national platform, Brighton will be no pushovers. But Liverpool haven’t gone three league games without a win all season—and they’ll be determined not to start now.
