For the 20th matchday of the English Premier League, Brighton welcomes Liverpool.
Brighton were impressive in their last league match, and first for the new year, beating Everton away from home 4-1. The first half was particularly competitive with Brighton opening the scoring in the 15th minute in the first real chance they had and went to the dressing room in front of the score. In the second half, she scored 3 goals in 6 minutes (51'-57') and gave dimensions of triumph to her victory with the hosts simply achieving the goal of honor in the delays of the match.
So Brighton continue their very good run in the league, at the end of the match he found her in 8th place with 27 points.
At the same time, they continue in the cup, last Saturday they beat Middlesbrough 5-1 and qualified for the next phase of the competition.
Bad start for Liverpool in the new year, in their last league match they were defeated in London by Brentford 3-1. In the first half, she was inferior to the circumstances, received many phases and went to the locker room behind the score with a passive of two goals. In the replay, he tried to react, he reduced early on, but then it had no substance and, conceding a third goal in the 85th minute, he was left empty-handed from the match.
Defeat that ended a 4-game winning streak in the league that leaves them well behind in the title race, after 17 matches it is in 7th place with 28 points and minus 16 from the first Arsenal and at minus 7 from the fourth and last place that gives a ticket to the groups of the next Champions League.
A few days later Liverpool were held to a 2-2 draw against Wolves for the cup and will now play the qualifier at home to their opponents.
Brighton are having a great run in the league, playing nice football and scoring with ease being very competitive for any opposition. Liverpool, coming from a bad result, wants to get back to winning ways, seeing that they are far behind in the battle for the title. Klopp's team will not have an easy task at all, the playing style of the home team can however allow them to create many phases in the opponent's home and bring out their attacking quality.
