How Liverpool can turn the tables on Brighton when they face off this weekend
In football, everybody has a so-called “bogey team”. No matter what your side does, what line-up your manager picks or how well the players perform, the result never goes in your favour. For over the past four seasons, their bogey team have been Brighton & Hove Albion. Jurgen Klopp’s men have won only one of their last seven games against them.
Out-to-in runs One of Liverpool’s main shortcomings against Brighton in that 3-0 defeat last season was falling into the trap of following the striker dropping deep, who would make space for out-to-in runs from his wide forwards. Much in the same way that Roberto Firmino was a master at pulling centre-backs into uncomfortable positions to create space for Liverpool wide men and to run into, Brighton accomplished the exact same trick.
