Now Liverpool have a corner as Simon Adingra clears behind after a heavy touch inside the box by Mohamed Salah.

Liverpool play the corner short before the ball in by Alexis Mac Allister is cleared by Danny Welbeck.

All of Liverpool's attacks are coming down the right as the ball is worked to Alexis Mac Allister on the edge of the box and the ex-Brighton man turns but drives his shot over.

Brighton have the first corner of the game but Pascal Gross wastes it with a delivery that goes beyond everyone and behind.

Brighton are having to defend a bit here, Liverpool are starting to pick up momentum.

Another chance for Mohamed Salah as he is picked out inside the box but this time he bends his shot just wide.

Cracking tempo to this game.

There's a nice, open feel to this game as Simon Adingra takes advantage of a slip by Conor Bradley to charge away down the left again. The Liverpool defence does its job this time and then the ball is worked quickly to Mohamed Salah, who cuts inside to get into the box but his low strike is blocked.

There was panic on Estupinan's face, but I don't think that's enough for a penalty.

Darwin Nunez goes down inside the box as he challenges for a cross with Pervis Estupinan.

The home fans scream for a penalty but David Coote isn't interested and VAR doesn't feel the need to intervene.

Jurgen Klopp looked in stunned disbelief at that strike.

Brighton look well up for causing an upset - as well as boosting their own ambitions of securing European football next season - as they attack again but Tariq Lamptey is flagged offside.

What a start for Brighton. Conor Bradley was up the field and out of position.

It's a brilliant strike and the goalkeeper has no chance.

A huge roar from the home fans as Brighton get things under way.

The players are out on the pitch and there's a minute's applause for ex-Liverpool player Larry Lloyd, who died last week aged 75.

• Brighton are unbeaten in their past three away league games against Liverpool, having only avoided defeat in two of their previous 11 visits to Anfield.
• Jurgen Klopp's side are unbeaten in their past 26 Premier League home games since a 2-1 loss to Leeds United in October 2022.
• Since the start of last season, 11 of Brighton’s 12 league away wins have been against sides in the bottom half of the table, with the exception being a win at Arsenal last May. Under Roberto de Zerbi, the Seagulls have taken just five points from 33 available away from home against sides in the top 10.
• Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah is averaging a goal or assist every 76 minutes in the this season - the best rate of anyone to play at least 180 minutes in the competition this term.
• Salah needs an assist to become the first player in Premier League history to reach double figures for both goals and assists in three consecutive campaigns.
• Brighton beat Nottingham Forest in their last league game but have not managed consecutive victories since a run of three in September.

Alexis Mac Allister stood out like a sore thumb at Brighton as a top, top player and it's no surprise he moved to a club like Liverpool. He progresses the ball really well up the pitch.

For Alexis Mac Allister to play most of the part of the season as a six, he did a good job but Endo has that position and it pushes Mac Allister higher. He brings quality, vision, the first touch. He is a wonderful player and a World Cup winner.
