Brighton vs Liverpool prediction, H2H and probable lineups – 19.05.2025
The final match of the 37th round of the English Premier League will take place on Monday at the Amex Stadium in Falmer, where local side Brighton will host Liverpool. I'm offering a bet on the outcome of this clash with strong chances for success.
Match preview
Fabian Hürzeler's men have put together an impressive run in the Premier League, avoiding defeat in three consecutive matches. First, Brighton edged out West Ham at home in dramatic fashion — 3-2, then earned a hard-fought point against Newcastle (1-1), and finally coolly dispatched Wolves away — 2-0. Yet even this powerful stretch wasn't enough for the Seagulls to mount a serious challenge for a European spot: with two rounds to go, a comeback is off the table — they're seven points adrift of seventh-placed Nottingham Forest, an insurmountable gap.
Overall, it's fair to say Brighton have noticeably improved this spring: the team has avoided defeat in nine of their last twelve league matches, claiming six wins and three draws. They showed character and a clear playing identity, but points dropped early in the spring proved fatal in the race for the top seven.
Having secured the title early, Liverpool have clearly eased off the gas. Arne Slot's side failed to win for a second straight round: first, the Merseysiders slipped up away at Chelsea (1-3), then played out a high-scoring draw at Anfield with Arsenal — 2-2. Despite this, the Reds remain one of the most consistent teams of the season, suffering just two Premier League defeats.
Moreover, Liverpool continue to lead the league in attacking output, having already scored 83 goals — the best tally among all Premier League sides. Slot's team's consistency is further highlighted by the stats: in 32 league games, they've racked up 22 wins, drawn eight times, and lost only twice, showcasing exemplary strength over the long haul.
Probable lineups
- Brighton: Bart Verbruggen – Tariq Lamptey, Jan Paul van Hecke, Adam Webster, Pervis Estupiñán – Yasin Ayari, Mats Wieffer – Matt O’Riley, Carlos Baleba, Yankuba Minteh – Danny Welbeck
- Liverpool: Alisson Becker – Virgil van Dijk, Conor Bradley, Ibrahima Konaté, Andrew Robertson – Curtis Jones, Ryan Gravenberch, Dominik Szoboszlai – Mohamed Salah, Luis Díaz, Cody Gakpo
Match facts and head-to-head
- In the first half of the season, Liverpool beat Brighton 2-1

Prediction
Brighton have been strong at the Amex Stadium—losing only to Aston Villa in their last seven Premier League home games, while securing four wins and two draws. The Seagulls are confident on their own turf and pose serious problems for any opponent. Our bet: "Brighton not to lose" at odds of 1.60.
