Hello and welcome to LIVE updates of the Premier League clash between Brighton and Liverpool. Will Jurgen Klopp’s champions bounce back from their flat Champions League loss to Atalanta or will the Seagulls end a run of nine straight defeats to the Reds in all competitions and claim their biggest win of the season to-date? Kick off 12.30 GMT.

Maupay spins in the centre circle and completely splits the Liverpool defence. Connolly is clean through, but somehow manages to fire his shot wide of the far post.

STAT: Brighton claimed their first Premier League win in seven attempts last weekend. As a result the hosts are targeting consecutive league victories for the first time in more than a year.

Robertson and Firmino combine neatly on the left, but the Brazilian runs out of ideas and sees a hopeful shot from just inside the area easily blocked.

Liverpool have started very brightly. More slick build-up play ends with Jota's first-time drive from 25 yards deflecting wide.

Liverpool come again. Fabinho rakes a diagonal ball to pick out Salah's run from the right, but the Egyptian flashes a shot from 22 yards out just wide.

Firmino drops deep and plays a delicious reverse ball into Jota's path. He cuts in from the left, but his low cross towards Salah lacsk pace and it's well cut out by March.

League H2H at Brighton: Brighton 1 win, 5 draws, Liverpool 5 wins.

KICK OFF! Liverpool get us underway. Just prior to kick off the players gathered around the centre circle to take part in a minute of applause for Diego Maradona.

SHARING THE LOAD OR STRIKER WOES? Brighton's last seven top-flight goals have been scored by seven different players.

SUPER SALAH: The Egyptian has been directly involved in eight goals in his six Premier League outings against Brighton, scoring five and teeing up three.

Meanwhile, in some off-the-pitch news, Liverpool full back Andy Robertson has launched his own charity aimed at helping vulnerable children in his native Scotland. Nice work, Robbo.

Klopp spoke of his team being like an orchestra ahead of the Atalanta loss. He's mixed up his musicians again today. Will it see them hit those high notes?

Yves Bissouma spoke to the Brighton website ahead of this contest and spoke about his desire to improve: "I'm always working hard and trying to keep a focused mentality. But I know I need to keep working on my consistency so I can get even better. You can have a lot of talent, but you must always work hard. I have learnt that to play in the Premier League you have to work. When we had the lockdown, I trained every day to make sure that when football restarted, I was ready.”

Brighton boss, Graham Potter: "Jota has settled in really well there and he fits what they are trying to do. He gives them another dimension and allows them to play with a front-four with Salah up front and Firmino as a number 10, that can work. They have got probably the best front four in world football, arguably, so credit to Liverpool, they have identified someone they think can help them strengthen and I think he has done that. They are a formidable attacking unit - and the team behind them, of course - but those front four very dangerous."

While a midfield mainstay is tipped to be on his way OUT.

Liverpool feature amongst the latest transfer gossip. According to Inside Football, one superstar is on the radar to come IN...

Jurgen Klopp hails Alisson: “I would say 99 good ones so far. I can’t remember a game when he was not spot on, so that’s good. And of course it’s important. When you have a world-class goalkeeper, you want to have him in your goal. The more often you can do that, the better it is for us and so I am very happy.”

Brighton make two changes. The in-form Tariq Lamptey is suspended so Joel Veltman comes in. There's also a start in attack for Aaron Connolly. Former Liverpool star, Adam Lallana is on the bench after injury.
