Even with a victory Brighton will stay 4th, but they'll be one point behind Tottenham with a game in hand.

We’ll bring you line-ups, news of all the goals as they go in and keep a roving eye on proceedings in the EFL. Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur got proceedings under way at the Emirates in the first North Lond derby of the season, where the sides are level at one goal apiece at half-time after a Harry Kane penalty cancelled out Thomas Partey’s opener. Crystal Palace v Chelsea: James Tomkins is back in Patrick Vieira’s squad after missing the beginning of the season with a calf injury and starts on the bench. Later on, Roberto De Zerbi faces one of the stiffest top flight tests imaginable when he attempts to mastermind victory over Liverpool at Anfield in his first match in charge of Brighton. Liverpool v Brighton: Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson starts his first match in over a month as Jurgen Klopp makes allowances for the exertions of the international break. West Ham v Wolves: “West Ham sit 18th after taking four points from their first seven games of this season and are flirting with danger,” writes Jacob Steinberg. Premier League: Goals from Thomas Partey, Gabriel Jesus and Granit Xhaka helped Arsenal to a convincing victory over a Tottenham Hotspur side who were reduced to 10 men in the second half. Callum Wilson has just given Newcastle the lead but his goal is currently the subject of a lengthy VAR review for a possible Joe Willock offside in the build-up. Jordan Pickford returns from a thigh injury to start for Everton at St Mary’s. Duje Caleta-Car is handed his debut and Ainsley Maitland-Niles is given a first start. “Game of the day is at Tannadice where Dundee United host St. He’s replaced by James Tomkins, who has just returned from a spell on the sidelines himself.

Sir Kenny Dalglish believes a Liverpool victory over Rangers in Tuesdays Champions League clash at Anfield is by no means guaranteed.

"You are not going to be able to do that. So I don't think it is a leveller." Celtic never played as well as they can play or have played. So you need a little bit of luck. There is nothing (that is) a formality. You can always get an upset.

In contrast, Salah scored a hat-trick and returned to Liverpool early so he is a must for me. Given Robertson is still out for this game, the Greek international gets the nod from me. The newly-crowned Liverpool Player of the Month for September should not lose his place in midfield — Henderson can play in midweek. Salah is bound to play, and it would be good to get Núñez in the side if he is fit. In midfield, I will be going for experience. But with Díaz returning latest, he looks the most obvious candidate to miss out. Klopp knows the importance of returning to Premier League action with a positive result, but Brighton are never easy. Instead, I'm going to have Diogo Jota on the left, In the rush not to scapegoat Alexander-Arnold, many have inadvertently thrown Elliott under the bus. But that is the reality in this most crazily congested and disrupted season. For this one, I'm looking at what is to come. The defence picks itself.

Brighton earned a thrilling 3-3 draw at Liverpool, with Leandro Trossard scoring a hat-trick and Roberto Firmino on target twice for the hosts.

VAR, however, ruled that Webster had played Salah onside when the captain’s ball sailed over the top and, after a lengthy deliberation, Madley overturned his decision to the unrestrained joy – and relief – of Klopp. Pervis Estupiñán sent the striker scurrying down the left and he squared to March, who released Trossard into the area with a lovely first touch. After the defender headed a Solly March cross back across the Liverpool area the excellent Moisés Caicedo beat Jordan Henderson to the second ball and found Alexis Mac Allister. It was not forthcoming, with Alexander-Arnold erring for both Brighton goals and almost for a third on the stroke of half-time. But for a brilliant save by Alisson and a poor header from Danny Welbeck they would have been four goals ahead inside the opening 18 minutes and cruising before Firmino changed the complexion of the game. Liverpool appeared to have salvaged victory from the ashes when, having trailed to two early Trossard strikes, Roberto Firmino scored twice and Adam Webster put through his own goal after a mistake by the Brighton goalkeeper Robert Sánchez.

A hat-trick from Belgian forward Leandro Trossard earned Brighton & Hove Albion a worthy point in an exhilarating 3-3 draw with Premier League title-chasing ...

"Before when he was in the national team, I sent him a message that he needed to score more goals. "I believe he can do even better than today. We have to go together and build." "This game has different stories," Liverpool coach Juergen Klopp told the BBC. Liverpool took the lead in the 63rd minute with a goal Brighton goalkeeper Robert Sanchez will not want to see again, as he completely missed his punch, leaving Webster powerless as the ball rolled into his own net off his chest. "I know we have 10 points and that's the reality.

It was a different formation, we were surprised a little bit? Speaking after the game, the German was full of praise for his opponents on the day but conceded that his side must do better in their upcoming fixtures. Jurgen Klopp says Liverpool have to show a reaction after their 3-3 draw against Brighton and claims he won’t hide from his side having 10 points in the Premier League.

Roberto Firmino shone and Trent Alexander-Arnold struggled as Liverpool drew 3-3 with Brighton in the Premier League at Anfield.

The winger had only trained with the team once prior to this game, having returned from international duty late on Thursday morning. He had to be, to beat Alisson Becker, who was in superb form for Liverpool. He was superb here, quick of foot and mind, causing untold problems for Trent Alexander-Arnold with his movement and, when the chances came, clinical with his finishing.

"Usually we adapt quicker. Klopp summoned Virgil van Dijk to the touchline after the second goal in a bid to restore some order and the Reds did get a foothold before the break. However, Liverpool were not so lucky when they passed up a third big chance after the opener as Brighton again worked an opening down the side of Alexander-Arnold and Trossard's strike had too much power for Alisson. De Zerbi's debut after succeeding new Chelsea boss Graham Potter lived up to the hype as the Italian's brand of intricate passing out from the back cut Liverpool to shreds in the early stages. But in Roberto De Zerbi's first game as Brighton boss, the Seagulls got the reward their performance deserved when Trossard fired in at the back post seven minutes from time. Klopp's men were starring down the barrel of a first league defeat in front of fans at Anfield since 2017 when the Belgian scored twice inside the first 17 minutes.

Jürgen Klopp conceded Liverpool were suffering a crisis of confidence after dropping points for the fifth time in seven Premier League games with a 3-3 draw ...

We want to do much better, have more points, improve in the table and then we are 2-0 down against a really good opponent. You get that with top defending, and we didn’t have that. It was the first by a visiting player at Anfield in 13 years.

Analysis from Anfield where Liverpool were held to a 3-3 draw by Brighton & Hove Albion on another frustrating afternoon for Jurgen Klopp and Trent ...

Given that a different area of the team has seemed to malfunction during each of Liverpool's poor performances this season, pinpointing a reason behind their mixed form has been difficult. Klopp launched an impassioned defence of his No.66 in the build-up to this game and had a point when he mentioned that too much is often made of his defensive shortcomings. With a number of the same issues that have plagued Jurgen Klopp's side since early August rearing their heads once again, the German has some thinking to do.

DOMINIC KING: At the end of week that has been filled with frustration, headlines and conjecture, fate handed him the chance to become a hero.

Was this the moment he was about to banish all his frustrations? Alisson had just made a great save to thwart Welbeck but needed one of his defenders to mop up. At the end of week that has been filled with frustration, headlines and conjecture, fate handed him the chance to become a hero.

It's looking increasingly like Arsenal is the real deal in the Premier League this season.

Liverpool, the 2020 champion and the biggest Premier League rival of dominant Manchester City in recent years, is already 11 points behind Arsenal and has only won two of its first seven games. On current form, it looks well within Arsenal's grasp to finish in the top four and qualify for the Champions League for the first time since the 2016-17 season. It's looking increasingly like Arsenal is the real deal in the Premier League this season.

In a pulsating 3-3 draw at home to Brighton & Hove Albion, Jurgen Klopp's side ranged from disastrous to an encouraging revival before that sinking feeling set ...

For most of Klopp’s reign, Liverpool have been excellent in both. They continue to look a shadow of their former selves both tactically and mentally. [Premier League](https://theathletic.com/football/premier-league/) games see them come up against the two current best teams in the country: [Arsenal](https://theathletic.com/football/team/arsenal/) and [Manchester City](https://theathletic.com/football/team/manchester-city/).

One of Liverpool's big strengths last season looked like a glaring weakness as they predictably conceded a late goal against Brighton on Saturday afternoon.

But the Hammers threatened to snatch a point in the final 20 minutes as Manuel Lanzini (0.4 xG) and Michail Antonio (0.14 xG) squandered opportunities. This isn’t the only scenario when game management is required, of course, but it’s the most prevalent. Their inability to exert any real control over a game will continue to hold them back until it is decisively addressed. Their solitary attempt had a two per cent chance of leading to a goal. The closest Eddie Howe’s side got to an equaliser was a hopeful, 0.02 xG 86th-minute attempt. They would allow three shots thereafter but they were all audacious, amounting just to 0.08 xG. The xG was rated at just 0.02. They managed one attempt in the 85th minute, worth a mere 0.06 xG. The hosts had caused the Reds big problems in the first half, but they never looked likely to equalise late on, with their final attempt coming in the 62nd minute. It was, then, a test of their credentials as a trophy-hunting side, and they failed. Let’s look back at how Liverpool fared in similar situations in 2021/22. [Naby Keïta](https://www.liverpool.com/liverpool-fc-news/transfer-news/liverpool-transfer-fsg-contract-dilemma-25138598) had given them in the 19th minute.

Liverpool's mixed start to the season continued with a 3-3 draw against Brighton at Anfield on Saturday afternoon. Virgil van Dijk had some thoughts on ...

Defending starts from the front and attacking starts from the back, and that's how we have our principles, and we have to get back to that, to that consistency, and yeah… "We have to find that moment, and obviously we know we have tough games ahead: Rangers in the Champions League, then Arsenal, Rangers, [Manchester] City, is it West Ham? "You have to get in the moment, and that consistency is the most difficult part of football. When pushed on why it is not working quite as well this time around, Van Dijk added: "Pressure, and that is always what we try to do: get in the right spaces and do it all together. And we have to stick together. "Obviously, we changed that a little bit as well and you know, it's difficult.

The situation is not as bleak as that day seven years ago against Crystal Palace but the warning signs, big and bold, are there. ‘Defending starts from the front and attacking starts from the back and that’s how we have our principles. So let’s just go for it, get the confidence and consistency back.’ The significance and symbolism of it all could not be escaped. We didn’t defend top in the beginning and then not even during the game.’ All the while, Klopp stood on the touchline with his assistant Pep Lijnders and tried to spark a last, desperate attempt to change the narrative. For that you need stability and consistency and you get that with top defending. DOMINIC KING: Jurgen Klopp faces a battle he thought he'd overcome to try get the Liverpool faithful back onside... We have to get back to that, to that consistency. Liverpool continued to flounder, their fans continued to file out. Over the past seven years, he has exorcised doubt.

He described the ease with which Brighton played through the Liverpool midfield as “horrendous” and a 4-1 thrashing at the hands of Napoli in the Champions League last month as a “horror show”. Liverpool has won just three of its opening nine games of the campaign to fall already 11 points off the pace in the Premier League and with work to do to reach the last 16 of the Champions League ahead of Rangers’ visit to Anfield on Tuesday. Nunez scored twice in his first two appearances as Liverpool beat Manchester City in the Community Shield and salvaged a 2-2 draw at Fulham on the opening weekend of the season.

After another disappointing match for Liverpool, LFCTR take a look at what is going wrong at Anfield. Who is to blame? Jurgen Klopp, the players or FSG?

The owners. A mixture of overreliance and complacency has seen them suffer a huge drop-off in performance. Trent Alexander-Arnold, Virgil Van Dijk, Andy Robertson, and Fabinho have all been way below the standards they set. A defensive unit that was unbeatable and unbreakable. LFCTR dive into all three factors to conclude why Liverpool find themselves in this awful situation and how it can be fixed. As time moves on, players move on and other teams begin to figure you out. From questionable decisions made by the manager to underperforming players, to a shoestring budget in the transfer window.
