Liverpool will be out to right the wrongs of last week’s 2-1 defeat to Tottenham when they tackle Brighton at the Amex Stadium in Sunday’s 3pm Premier League kickoff.
Robbed of a legit goal by a botched VAR check on what would have been a Luis Diaz opener, the Reds lost their unbeaten start to the league campaign.
In a battle between fourth and sixth as Liverpool (16 points) go to Brighton (15 points), who played Union St Gilloise and Marseille in the Europa League respectively on Thursday night, Reds rightback Trent Alexander-Arnold says they are still kwaad.
FT: A well deserved point on the road! 👏

Asked if coach Jurgen Klopp’s manne will have extra fire at Brighton ahead of Thursday night’s action, he says: “I mean, taking the circumstances and what actually happened and putting that aside, we lost the game.
“Our motivation now is to win both [games]. That’s where our focus is at.”
