Brighton have the best home record outside of the top six this season but that might count for little against a Liverpool side itching to return to winning ways. Jürgen Klopp still holds a four-point lead and he will desperately want to avoid the gap being reduced further. Chris Hughton will be pleased to see Fabinho remain in defence so Glenn Murray can bully the Brazilian, and with Jürgen Locadia finally showing his attacking ability, a cliche Liverpool clean sheet is unlikely.
