Liverpool are in FA Cup action this afternoon as Jurgen Klopp's side take on Brighton in the fourth round of the competition.

Just two weeks ago, the Reds were humbled on the South Coast when Roberto De Zerbi's struck three past the Reds without reply. Klopp described this contest as a new low in his managerial career and was visibly upset as he made his way over to the away supporters after the full-time whistle.

Aiming to avoid a repeat of this harrowing afternoon, Liverpool will require a performance of the highest order to stand any chance of condemning the Seagulls to defeat. Ahead of this cup showdown, we have rounded up all the information you need to know.

Brighton vs Liverpool team news

Fabio Carvalho and Nat Phillips are doubts ahead of today's FA Cup tie, with the pair both struggling with minor fitness issues. Arthur Melo, Diogo Jota, Luis Diaz, Roberto Firmino and Virgil van Dijk are edging closer to making their respective returns but remain sidelined.

For the hosts, midfielder Moises Caicedo will not be available for selection after the Ecuador international released a statement on social media expressing his desire to leave the club. The Seagulls have adopted a firm stance on the matter, informing the 21-year-old to stay away from first-team training for the time being in order to refocus.

Ex-Red Adam Lallana will also miss out on Sunday afternoon due to injury, as well as promising Chelsea loanee Levi Colwill. Speaking on Friday afternoon, De Zerbi said: "Both Adam Lallana and Levi Colwill will miss the game. Lallana is one of the most important players in the squad, he will be out for a couple of weeks.

"We can play without Adam, or Alexis for example as we proved. We can do that because of the number of players, the young players are improving and are ready to play.

"It will be a different game, the last game was difficult, against Liverpool it will always be difficult. On Sunday we want to win and to play well. It's possible to play better than we did against Leicester."
