Crystal Palace manager Roy Hodgson bemoans penalty decision for Liverpool after defeat

Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool side will be looking to uphold their unbeaten start with a third clean sheet of the season against Chris Hughton’s Brighton & Hove Albion.

Kloop will be looking towards his new backline in order to maintain what has been a perfect start to the campaign. This game shows promise of a goal-fest as the aggregate score between these two sides last season was 9-1 in Liverpool's favour.

The last meeting between these two sides saw Liverpool completely dominate, keeping 72 per cent possession and making 728 passes compared to Brighton’s 249.

Two wins in as many games has put Liverpool into second place in the Premier League, but the side now have the chance to go top after City were held to a 1-1 draw at Wolves.

FULL TIME: Liverpool 1-0 Brighton

The hosts have not been at their sizzling best today, but unlike their title rivals Manchester City, they did enough to wrap up the game thanks to a moment of magic from Mo Salah, thus continuing their 100 per cent start to the season.

Brighton will be disappointed with the manner in which they conceded the goal, but they could, and maybe should, have been level through Pascal Gross.

Anfield remains a fortress!
