Brighton arrive at Anfield in blistering form, and we fancy them to dent Liverpool‘s patchy home record when the two meet on Sunday afternoon.
Anthony Eadson’s Liverpool vs Brighton & Hove Albion predictions, best bets and score prediction are below.
Premium Tips
Here are our two best bets for a 2pm kick-off that has served up goals aplenty in recent seasons.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Over 3.5 goals | 13/10 (bet365) | Liverpool have conceded five times across their three home games this season and are still waiting for a first Anfield win, so the goals look likely to flow at both ends. Brighton travel as the division’s form attack, having racked up 23 goals in seven matches, 10 of them in just three away outings. The fixture history backs the theme too, with four of the last five league meetings between the pair producing three goals or more. With both defences there to be got at and neither side short of attacking intent, four or more goals at 13/10 holds plenty of appeal on Sunday. |
| Charalampos Kostoulas to score anytime | 15/8 (Sky Bet) | Charalampos Kostoulas has become Brighton’s go-to finisher, with three goals in his last four league games, against Coventry City, Arsenal and Crystal Palace. He has hit the target in five of his seven appearances and has played at least an hour in each of his last six, in a side that has scored in every league game on the way to 23 goals. Brighton have scored 10 in three away trips, and Liverpool have conceded five in three games at Anfield. At 15/8 with Sky Bet, Kostoulas is our pick to find the net. |

How Liverpool go into the game
Liverpool sit fifth on 12 points after seven games, a return built almost entirely on their travels. They have won three and drawn one of their four away matches, scoring seven, with the latest a 2-1 success at Brentford last time out. Earlier away days brought a 1-0 win at Bournemouth and a 2-0 win at Ipswich Town, so there is no doubting their quality on the move.
Home has been a different story. Liverpool are still searching for a first Anfield win of the campaign, with just two points from three games there and five goals conceded. A 3-0 defeat to Manchester City and a goalless draw with Fulham underline the issues, and that soft home form is the obvious worry against in-form opponents.
How Brighton & Hove Albion go into the game
Brighton arrive third on 16 points and in the sort of groove that makes them awkward for anyone. They have won five of their seven games, losing just once, and boast a goal difference of plus 18 after scoring 23 and conceding only five. Last time out they thrashed Crystal Palace 5-0 to keep the momentum rolling.
The away form is what catches the eye for this trip. Brighton have won two and lost one of their three matches on the road, scoring 10, with a 2-0 win at Sunderland and a 5-0 rout at Coventry City on the CV. A 3-0 home win over Arsenal shows they can handle the big occasions, and they will travel to Anfield full of belief.

Liverpool vs Brighton & Hove Albion head-to-head
| Date | Home | Score | Away |
|---|---|---|---|
| 21/03/26 | Brighton & Hove Albion | 2-1 | Liverpool |
| 13/12/25 | Liverpool | 2-0 | Brighton & Hove Albion |

| 31/03/24 | Liverpool | 2-1 | Brighton & Hove Albion |
The head-to-head makes for interesting reading. The Reds have won each of their last three home league meetings with Brighton, but the Seagulls took the points at the Amex back in March, and these games rarely lack for goals, with both teams scoring in four of the last five.

Liverpool vs Brighton & Hove Albion score prediction
Everything points to an open, high-scoring afternoon. Liverpool’s attacking quality should bring them goals, but their shaky home form and Brighton’s red-hot away record make a shared outcome appealing. We will go for a score draw, with Brighton’s attackers doing enough to take something back down south. Score prediction: Liverpool 2-2 Brighton & Hove Albion.
