Brighton vs. Liverpool: LIVE Updates from the Carabao Cup

The Carabao Cup holders, Liverpool, face a tricky test tonight as they take on Brighton & Hove Albion for a place in the quarter-finals. The Reds thumped hapless West Ham 5-1 in the previous round, while Fabian Hurzeler's side knocked out Wolves in a five-goal thriller. Arne Slot will be wary of the threats on the south coast tonight, and will again be without Diogo Jota.

Slot has lost his 100 per cent away record as Liverpool manager with Sunday's 2-2 draw at Arsenal and the Reds have a history of fourth-round exits in this competition, an omen Brighton will be looking to repeat tonight at the Amex Stadium. As well as Jota, Federico Chiesa, Harvey Elliott and Alisson Becker are also out but Conor Bradley is available again.

Danny Welbeck will be hoping to start again after shaking off a back injury to face Wolves, and then open the scoring. Hurzeler will be looking for more of the same tonight, while Evan Ferguson ended his goal drought in the same game as he looks to build momentum with form and fitness.

Team News and Lineup Predictions

Liverpool will be looking to get back to winning ways when they travel to Brighton for the fourth round of EFL Cup on Wednesday. The Reds battled back from a goal down twice to secure a 2-2 draw against rivals Arsenal in Sunday's Premier League clash, which saw them slip to second place in the league standings. Brighton were also held to a 2-2 stalemate by Wolverhampton in their last Premier League game.

Arne Slot is likely to rotate much of the squad for this upcoming tie against Brighton. Joe Gomez, Wataru Endo, and Jarell Quansah will probably feature from the start. Alisson, Diego Jota, and Harvey Eliott continue to be sidelined for Liverpool, while the likes of Federico Chiesa along with Conor Bradley remain a doubt for this match.

Liverpool Predicted Lineup (4-2-3-1, right to left): Kelleher (GK) — Alexander-Arnold, Gomez, Quansah, Tsimikas — Endo, Gravenberch — Salah, Szoboszlai, Gakpo — Nunez.

Injured: Chiesa (doubt), Bradley (doubt), Alisson, Jota, Eliott## Suspended: None

With Georginio Rutter Cup-tied, Evan Ferguson is likely to start up front for Brighton along with Julio Enciso. Joao Pedro, Solly March, Yankuba Minteh, Matt O'Riley, Adam Webster, and James Milner are all sidelined with injuries. Skipper Lewis Dunk is also a doubt alongside Jack Hinshelwood.

Brighton Predicted XI (4-4-2, right to left): Steele (GK) — Lamptey, Van Hecke, Igor, Estupinan — Adingra, Baleba, Wieffer, Mitoma — Enciso, Ferguson.

Injured: Pedro, March, Minteh, O'Riley, Webster, Milner## Suspended: None

Brighton vs. Liverpool: Preview and Predictions

Brighton come into this game with a slight edge, as they are unbeaten (two wins and one draw) at home in their last three matches with Liverpool across all competitions. Despite the potential problems Brighton can pose, Liverpool should come away with a result in a closely contested match.

What To Expect from the Match

Liverpool continues its defense of the Carabao Cup later this evening as the Reds make the long journey to Brighton. Arne Slot’s side will be aiming to continue their fine start to the season and book a place in the quarter-finals of the competition, although Brighton will no doubt provide a stern test. The Liverpool boss will no doubt make changes to his side, although he will be somewhat limited by the injuries currently in his squad, meaning we could still see some of the regular faces starting.

Where To Watch The Game

The match kicks off at 7:30pm in the UK, which is 12:30pm Pacific Time and 3:30pm Eastern Time. It is set to be played at the Amex Stadium, with Liverpool making its first visit to the south coast this season. Darren Bond will be the referee and there is NO VAR in this tournament (at least at this stage) so there will be no waiting for checks. There's also no extra time, so if the teams are level after 90 minutes, the game will go straight to a penalty shootout.

Final Thoughts

This EFL Cup match promises to be a thrilling encounter between two of the Premier League's most exciting teams. Brighton's home advantage and recent form against Liverpool will make this a tough test for the Reds, but their quality and experience could ultimately prove to be the difference.

A Look at the History: Brighton vs. Liverpool

The two sides have met twice before in the League Cup and Liverpool won both, first in 1985 when they won 4-0 at Anfield and more recently in 2011 when goals from Craig Bellamy and Dirk Kuyt gave the Reds a 2-1 at the newly opened Amex Stadium against the Championship side.

A Look at the Odds: Brighton vs. Liverpool

Betting sites have installed Liverpool as the favourites to progress at odds of 11/10, while Brighton are priced up at 12/5.

A Look at the Stats: Brighton vs. Liverpool

Since facing West Ham in the last round Liverpool have taken the lead in five of their last six matches, in all competitions, the only time they went behind was against Arsenal on Sunday. That coupled with the fact that both sides have scored in four of the last five meetings means we are expecting goals in this fixture. Regardless of who Slot starts, we know from the West Ham game that he is not afraid to bring on his big guns to make sure of the win. Odds of 14/1 are available on Liverpool to win 3-1 or 8/1 on 2-1 and the fact Liverpool have conceded just seven goals in 13 games so far we can’t really see Brighton scoring more than one.

You can still find value on both teams to score and a Liverpool win on betting apps at 13/5, which is appealing to us.

Predictions

We feel that neither side will back down from the challenge. Hürzeler has a progressive approach and will not back down despite facing a talented Liverpool team that will relish space on the counter.

The Verdict

This EFL Cup encounter is set to be a tense and exciting affair, with both sides eager to secure a place in the quarter-finals. Liverpool's recent dominance over Brighton, coupled with their superior squad depth, suggests that they have the edge in this clash. However, Brighton's home advantage and their ability to create chances could make this a close contest. Expect a high-scoring match with plenty of chances at both ends.

Enjoy the Game!

Sit back, relax, and enjoy the exciting clash between Brighton and Liverpool in the EFL Cup. May the best team win!
