To forecast the score of this important Premier League match, we simulated Liverpool vs. Brighton.

Using EA FC 24, we simulated the Premier League match between Brighton and Hove Albion and Liverpool in order to forecast the outcome.

With three points against Brighton and Hove Albion later today, Liverpool can reclaim the top spot in the Premier League standings.

That will only last a few hours, as Liverpool faces Manchester City later in the day. A victory is essential for Liverpool, as a loss would see the Reds finish the week atop the league. Following a heartbreaking 4-3 loss to Manchester United that ended the Reds’ FA Cup run at the quarterfinal stage, Jurgen Klopp’s team headed into the international break.

But now that the Reds are playing Brighton on Sunday, all eyes can be on the Premier League and Europa League. Earlier in the season, Liverpool and the Seagulls drew 2-2, with Mohamed Salah scoring twice. However, Liverpool’s performance has not been good lately, as they have lost their previous four matches against Brighton.

To anticipate the score for Liverpool vs. Brighton and Hove Albion, we ran a simulation.

We utilised EA FC 24 to finish the simulation, updating the squads with the most recent suspensions and injuries.

We anticipate that Liverpool will start with the following lineup: Kelleher; Bradley, Konate, Van Dijk, Tsimikas; Endo, Szoboszlai, Mac Allister; Salah, Nunez, Diaz. Liverpool may adopt a 4-3-3 formation.

Brighton’s lineup may look like this: Verbruggen; Lamptey, Van de Hecke, Dunk, Estupinan; Gross, Gilmour; Adingra, Buonanotte, Fati; Welbeck. This is our predicted 4-2-3-1 formation.

Liverpool got off to a fast start at Anfield, taking the lead when Luis Diaz tucked Conor Bradley’s fizzed cross between the ‘keeper’s legs. The Reds took the lead and never looked back, doubling their lead before the twentieth minute.

Alexis Mac Allister made it 2-0 to Liverpool

Darwin Nunez and Lewis Dunk raced into a 50/50 after Virgil van Dijk’s long pass forward, but the Uruguayan got to the ball first, giving the Reds a penalty. Salah was replaced by Alexis Mac Allister, and the midfielder hammered a shot into the upper corner to double the score to 2-0.

Wataru Endo’s sending off for a risky challenge in the middle of the pitch came only moments after the Reds’ second goal, dealing a serious blow to the team. The visitors began to feel more confident with the man advantage, but in the 44th minute, a flash of brilliance increased Liverpool’s lead to three goals.

Dominik Szoboszlai made it 3-0 to Liverpool

Billy Gilmour made a last-minute challenge, and Dominik Szoboszlai won a free-kick thirty yards from goal. In place of Trent Alexander-Arnold, the Hungarian substituted himself and gave Liverpool a three-goal lead with a superb long-range strike.

After Klopp’s team eased off in the second half, Brighton’s Danny Welbeck drew one back in the 71st minute. But the Reds remained calm, as Liverpool closed out the win at Anfield with a polished display.
