This is how the Reds line up to take on Brighton ? #LIVBHA

? Here's our starting XI to take on Liverpool at Anfield.
In their first three Premier League seasons the Reds did the double over them, but since the summer of 2020 Brighton have won three and lost only one of eight meetings and have come away from Anfield with a 1-0 win and two high-scoring (2-2 and 3-3) draws, the last of those having been Roberto De Zerbi’s first match as manager.
Talking of whom, Ruben Amorim may have overtaken De Zerbi in the bookmakers’ reckoning as most likely replacement for Jurgen Klopp at Liverpool, but the coaches will provide an intriguing subplot to this match – though with any luck there’ll be enough action on the pitch for people to forget about them for a while.
Here’s Will Unwin’s thing to look out for in this game:
An Anfield audition for De Zerbi.
Whisper it, but Jürgen Klopp is leaving Liverpool at the end of the season and they need someone to replace him.
The new Liverpool sporting director Richard Hughes once recommended De Zerbi to take over at former club Bournemouth, indicating his views.
Sunday will, to some degree, be an audition for De Zerbi, and were he to end up at Anfield on a permanent basis fitting Milner and Lallana into the boot room might help the transition.
