Brighton & Hove Albion vs Liverpool Prediction, Preview & Betting Tips

Brighton versus Liverpool will be an intriguing game, as the Seagulls are in a hotly contested battle for eighth-place with the likes of Brentford, with that position potentially being a Europa Conference League qualification place, while the Reds have nothing to play for as they’re already Premier League champions.

Liverpool are favourites due to the quality of their squad and have an impressive record away from Anfield, as they have earned 38 points from 18 Premier League matches while suffering just two defeats.

On top of this, Liverpool have already beaten the Seagulls twice this campaign, having won 3-2 at the Amex Stadium in the League Cup, as well as 2-1 in their league encounter at Anfield on 2nd November. All of the last five meetings between these two sides have seen the Both Teams to Score market land.

Prediction: Brighton & Hove Albion 1-2 Liverpool

On Monday night, Brighton & Hove Albion hosts Liverpool in what is expected to be an entertaining clash at the Amex Stadium.

Date: 19/05/2025

Location: Amex Stadium

Time: 8pm

As previously mentioned, this will be the third head-to-head meeting between these two sides this campaign, as Liverpool beat the Seagulls 3-2 in the Last 16 of the League Cup thanks to a brace from Cody Gakpo, as well as a goal from Luis Diaz.

When they met at Anfield back on 2nd November, Arne Slot’s side ran out as 2-1 victors thanks to second half strikes by Gakpo and Mohamed Salah after Ferdi Kadioglu had given Brighton the lead in the 14th-minute.

This season has been a memorable one for Liverpool, as they managed to claim their second Premier League title in what is Slot’s first season at the helm, having accumulated 83 points from 36 games, seeing them sit 15 points clear of the likes of Arsenal in second place.

On the other hand, Brighton are in the midst of an intense battle for eighth-place, with that position being a UEFA Europa Conference League qualification place should Manchester City win the FA Cup against Crystal Palace this weekend. The Seagulls have earned 55 points from 36 matches and sit level on points with Brentford, who currently occupies that position.

Brighton & Hove Albion versus Liverpool will be broadcast live on Sky Sports Main Event, Sky Sports Premier League and Sky Sports Ultra HDR.
