Paul Merson believes that the best Liverpool can hope for against Brighton on Saturday is a draw and insists that he is 'being kind' with his prediction of a 2-2 draw.
The Reds suffered a set-back in their pursuit of a Champions League qualification spot when their run of four straight league wins was ended by Brentford on January 2. A 2-2 draw against Wolverhampton Wanderers in the FA Cup did little to reinforce the suggestion that the 3-1 loss at the Bees was a poor performance in isolation and now Sky Sports pundit Merson does not see things getting any easier for Jurgen Klopp's side when they visit the south coast this weekend to face Roberto De Zerbi's side.
Merson told Sportskeeda: "The one thing you can be sure about with this game is goals. Arsenal blew Brighton out of the water last week, but Brighton have won their games by 4-1 and 5-1 margins since then. They're scoring goals for fun.
