In the context of direct rivals accelerating strongly, Liverpool has not been able to enter the desired trajectory and has not had a smooth start in the Premier League. Undeniably, Liverpool is having difficulty using expensive rookie Nunez and they still have to live off Salah's breath.
Accordingly, the runner-up Liverpool only got 2 wins, the remaining 3 draws and 1 loss after 6 rounds played, thereby standing in 8th place on the table. Currently, despite playing less than 1 match, The Kop is 9 points behind the top team Arsenal and they will have to work harder to keep their hopes up.
This weekend, Liverpool has a match to welcome Brighton at home and the port city team is expected to win all 3 points, thereby continuing to chase Arsenal. However, with many stars just returning from serving the national team for the past two weeks, it is difficult for Liverpool to be in the best physical condition to find a distinct victory.
Currently, Brighton is a team that is not easy to bully when losing exactly once with a score of 1 goal, drawing 1, and winning 4 times after 6 rounds played. Summarizing the above reasons, it will not be easy for The Kop to win with a different score.
