The central match of the 8th round of the Premier League will undoubtedly be the clash between Liverpool and Brighton & Hove Albion, which will take place at Anfield.
After being humiliated by Manchester City at Anfield, Liverpool managed to restore their reputation in the eyes of their fans by beating the stubborn Brentford away from home. The team under Andoni Iraola inflicted Brentford’s first defeat of the season, managing to come back after trailing 1-0 during the match.
Brighton & Hove Albion are the biggest surprise of the Premier League season so far, confidently chasing Arsenal and Man City in the title race. The team have not only won four games in a row but have done so in style. Brighton’s latest victims were Crystal Palace, who Fabian Hürzeler’s men scored five unanswered goals against in the previous round.

Prediction for the Liverpool vs Brighton
All in all, the highlight of the round will be a clash between the Premier League’s surprise package and a big club that may not be at its peak but is in very good form. Brighton play well both at home and away. Their players are also full of confidence after scoring 15 goals in three games without conceding a single one. I think the hosts have enough experience to use their status as slight underdogs to launch well-organised counterattacks. I recommend betting on a Liverpool win.
