Liverpool - Brighton & Hove Albion predictions

With the 1.70 being what they are, we don’t expect anything other than a home win. Pulling off anything else would be a gargantuan task for Brighton & Hove Albion, so we’d stay away unless you’re looking for a long shot on purpose.

The away team’s chances of winning this Saturday are dubious at best. They are the clear underdogs in a matchup with Liverpool, and the fact that they’re the visiting team isn’t making things any easier.

A point is not what Liverpool were expecting to get from their last game against Leeds United. Even though they were seen as big favourites, Liverpool largely failed to make a valid point of 1.85 betting odds and secure three points.

Albion haven’t exactly been playing top of their game lately. Last round’s home draw 1:1 against West Ham United was far from a disaster, but most of us – including the world’s best online bookmakers – expected a lot more considering they played at home.

The last 3 times we saw The Reds play as the away team, they had serious issues stopping the ball from getting into their net, conceding more than 5 times. Hopefully, they’ll have better luck at home.

The most relevant bit of history we have for The Seagulls is their high concession rate at recent home games. After more than 5 goals conceded in 3 games, their fans have warranted concerns over the squad’s defensive performance.

The Reds are nearing the middle of the season mark with a 10th spot. There’s still plenty of time to claw their way into the top positions and achieve European qualification.

While most betting predictions agree that The Seagulls will have a tough time earning any points this Saturday, they’ll still be motivated to do so. There’s still plenty of time left to climb the standings, and they’ll need 2 points to get to a Europa League qualification.

Fortunately, both teams will have a complete lineup this Saturday, with no players out due to injury or suspension.

Though some punters may prefer more exciting options, the Under 3.5 Goals market is a solid opportunity for this fixture. It offers a surprisingly solid balance between risk and betting value – though the returns on their own aren’t much to look at.
