Preview: Brighton vs Liverpool Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds | Premier League 2025-26

The Seagulls have failed to score a goal in their last two fixtures against the Reds.

Brighton & Hove Albion are now going to battle it out against Liverpool FC for their matchweek 31 contest of the 2025-26 Premier League. This is going to be an entertaining encounter, taking place at the American Express Stadium.

The Seagulls are coming in after securing a 1-0 win against Sunderland in their last league outing. It was a close outing, but Brighton maintained their calm and composure to secure a win here. They will be at home for their next one and the Seagulls must use it to their advantage. They are in 12th place on the league table for now.

Liverpool have not been able to perform to their full potential in the Premier League this season. They were held to a 1-1 draw by Tottenham Hotspur in their previous league game. The Arne Slot-led side are winless in their last two games in the English top division. The Reds will be away from home, but will be putting up a strong fight if they want to finish in the top four.
