Liverpool secured a 2-0 victory over Brighton, with a Pascal Gross own goal and an Alexander Isak finish sealing the points. The win propelled Andoni Iraola's Liverpool up to fourth in the league standings. The Reds made four changes from their midweek Champions League clash against Villarreal, bringing in Isak, Florian Wirtz, Milos Kerkez, and Bradley Barcola. Wirtz was instrumental in the opening goal, firing a shot that deflected off Gross. Barcola then assisted Isak for the second goal. Brighton had opportunities, including a missed chance by Yasin Ayari and a shot that hit the post. Despite Brighton's efforts in the second half, Liverpool maintained their clean sheet, denying the Seagulls any comeback.
