Brighton vs. Liverpool: Why it matters
After a December that saw Liverpool win eight of eight games and clinch a spot in the UEFA Champions League round of 16, the Reds lost their first game of the Premier League season and were eliminated in the 3rd round of the FA Cup by Wolves this month. Jurgen Klopp and his team need to get back on track if LFC is to win a major trophy this year, as the lead in the Premier League has slipped to four points over Man City. The next few games should be favorable for the Reds, playing Crystal Palace, Leicester City, West Ham, and AFC Bournemouth, before the big UCL showdown with Bayern Munich on Feb. 19. As for this week, the Seagulls should be no match as Liverpool gets back on track. Liverpool 3, Brighton 3.
