Brighton vs Liverpool LIVE!

Liverpool are through to the Carabao Cup quarter-final thanks to an inspired display from Cody Gakpo in a 3-2 win over Brighton and Hove Albion as Arne Slot was rewarded for making wholesale changes.

Following an even first-half, the Reds to broke the deadlock within a minute of the restart as the aforementioned Dutchman netted a stunning curling strike before doubling his tally just after the hour mark after Vítezslav Jaros was called into action to make a superb save from Simon Adingra and Evan Ferguson spurned a decent chance.

However, a lapse in concentration from Jarell Quansah and subsequent mistake from Jaros allowed Simon Adingra to reduce the deficit and Luis Diaz’s goal proved to be the winner as Tariq Lamptey’s deflected effort set up a nervy finish which the visitors came through safely.

That was is the last round against West Ham United - where he unfortunately scored an own goal. Nevertheless, the youngster is ready to seize any opportunity given to him by Arne Slot.

“It's all about staying ready and you never know when your opportunity will come. It's just staying ready for anything.”

Tonight's fixtures

Arne Slot discusses Brighton threat

17:30 , Tashan Deniran-Alleyne

The Reds boss has outlined what makes tonight's opposition so dangerous.

"Very good idea about football for many years already. I like their playing style a lot with their former manager already and with this one as well. And I think what makes the club Brighton, in my opinion, special is that maybe [they do not have] the most money in the league when they buy the players – but they always find the right ones.

"So, there is a lot of quality, although also for them the transfer fees go up a bit but they are not spending £100 million on a player. They always find the right ones. So, many quality players to pick and a very good playing style."

Carabao Cup fourth round results

17:25 , Tashan Deniran-Alleyne

Standard Sport prediction

17:20 , Tashan Deniran-Alleyne

Liverpool aren't exactly clear favourites against a fellow Premier League side - and the bookies appear to agree - but Brighton did let a 2-0 lead slip at the weekend and their defence isn't exactly watertight and the expected absence of Lewis Dunk will be a real concern.

Even with rotation, the Reds should see this one out.

Liverpool to win, 2-1.

Liverpool team news

17:15 , Tashan Deniran-Alleyne

It will be interesting to see how much Liverpool boss Arne Slot decides to shake things up tonight.

Jarell Quansah, Wataru Endo and Conor Bradley are among those who could come into the side if changes are made, while Mohamed Salah and captain Virgil van Dijk may be rested.

Brighton team news

17:10 , Tashan Deniran-Alleyne

James Milner misses out on a reunion against his former club along with Joao Pedro and Adam Webster who are also sidelined through injury. Meanwhile, captain Lewis Dunk is likely to sit this one out too after injuring himself in the warm-up at the weekend against Wolves.

However, Jack Hinshelwood could return for Brighton, along with Yankuba Minteh whilst Evan Ferguson is pushing for a start in attack.
