# View From The Opposition: Brighton and Hove Albion

Liverpool travel to Brighton and Hove Albion on Saturday afternoon. This is the first meeting between these sides since February 2012, where Liverpool demolished Brighton 6-1.

Liverpool will aim to carry on their good recent run of form, whilst Brighton will be looking do the same

I spoke to Connor (@connorwhelan73) about all things Brighton ahead of the clash.

**1. Are you happy with the way Brighton’s season has gone so far?**

Yes, definitely! I feel we’ve definitely surprised a lot of people and set ourselves up as a Burnley/Bournemouth like team.

**2. Which one player should Liverpool be wary of on Saturday?**

Pascal Gross, he’s just involved in everything we do going forward and he can find space in most situations.

**3. What problems do you see Brighton causing Liverpool at Anfield?**

On the counter. We are going to sit back and let you attack (which is a brave move in itself) but against Man Utd, we did the same and were able to counter them well with Anthony Knockaert especially doing well. I see us using the same strategy Saturday.

**4. Which Liverpool player has impressed you the most this season?**

Mo Salah. If you ask that question to anyone, 9/10 of them will say Salah. He was average at Chelsea, good at Roma but he has been quality for Liverpool.

**5. And finally, score prediction?**

3-1 Liverpool. The attack is just too strong at this moment. It all depends on how long we can keep it goalless, that will decide on whether it’s 1-0 or 5-0. I feel we will start well but we will concede and have to chase the game.
