Comments and predictions for Brighton vs Liverpool: A fateful confrontation
The match between Brighton vs Liverpool in the Carabao Cup takes place at 2:30 a.m. on October 31. Nghe An Newspaper analyzes performance, makes football comments and predicts the score.
Brighton vs Liverpool squad information
Liverpool's injury situation remains largely unchanged, with Harvey Elliott (leg), Alisson Becker (hamstring) and Diogo Jota (abdomen) all expected to miss the game. Federico Chiesa (fitness) and Conor Bradley (unknown) are also doubtful. Both players are potential candidates to start, though. Manager Arne Slot may decide to replace Trent Alexander-Arnold with Joe Gomez if he needs to rest the star.
Wataru Endo and Jarell Quansah could also be given a chance to start, while Dominik Szoboszlai and Cody Gakpo will be valuable assets up front. Szoboszlai lost out to Curtis Jones for the top attacking midfielder position against Arsenal.
Brighton, on the other hand, will be relieved that Danny Welbeck is fit to play after a back injury, a week after he was stretchered off. Welbeck's presence will be important, especially as Georginio Rutter is out of the cup and Joao Pedro remains absent with an ankle injury. The hosts also have a problem with Lewis Dunk picking up a calf problem in the warm-up, and Jack Hinshelwood being left out of the squad with a minor injury.
Latest predicted lineup Brighton vs Liverpool

Liverpool:
Kelleher; Alexander-Arnold, Gomez, Quansah, Tsimikas; Endo, Gravenberch; Salah, Szoboszlai, Gakpo; Nunez
Latest Brighton vs Liverpool football prediction
Liverpool impressed in their run to the top of the Jurgen Klopp era with a 5-1 win over West Ham in the CARABAO Cup quarter-finals, and Arne Slot's side have repeated the feat more than nine months later. This means Liverpool have not lost a CARABAO Cup game since December 2022, with that win being the third in a run of eight consecutive wins in all competitions.
However, Liverpool's unbeaten away record under Slot came to an end in the Premier League, as they drew 2-2 with Arsenal. Despite coming behind twice, they still managed to pick up a point, but this saw Liverpool lose top spot to Manchester City.
Liverpool will now turn their attention to ending their fourth-round CARABAO Cup jinx, having been eliminated at this stage in each of the last four seasons. Brighton, following a 4-0 draw with Wolves, will be looking to end their run of fourth-round defeats in the CARABAO Cup. However, they have not progressed beyond this stage since 1978-79.
The game at the Amex could be a win for Brighton, as they are unbeaten in their last three games against Liverpool here, including a 2-1 win in the FA Cup in January. Liverpool won 2-1 at Anfield in their last meeting in March.
Liverpool under Slot have become away specialists, though, and look set to win a second successive CARABAO Cup title, although Wednesday's victory may not have been what fans were hoping for.
