I understand from a friend of mine that the Liverpool squad are staying at Malmaison hotel in Brighton marina . Not that it really matters .

Many teams do, I accidentally walked into Mason Mount on the way back to my car from the Harvester.

Not an anecdote for the ages, I grant you.

Despite the injuries and recent results, they are still a decent side so it'll not be a walk over.
That's some understatement. We're missing our top scorer and they've got a couple of injuries, but they are the favourites and we are the underdogs.

We have our form 11 available, Caicedo, Mac A and Mitoma are genuine stars who’d grace most teams.

Liverpool have key player injuries and a dysfunctional/old centre midfield.

My hunch is that the betting markets have this so wrong.

They may have it slightly wrong but it would be quite something for them to have it that wrong.

Looking at the betting exchanges Liverpool remain favourites but The Albion have steadily shortened in the betting over the week. Was 3.8 on Monday, down to 3.2 today. ie just under 3/1 into just over 2/1.
Down to 2/1 now.

Owing to last minute family issue my party is unable to attend todays game sadly and we have parking for both Sussex Uni and The Bridge. Can’t give them back to the club at this late stage it would appear, so if anyone is looking for parking drop me a dm

My layman’s view is that betting cashflows lean towards clubs with mass support, optimistic punters betting on their team across the world. Seemingly taking little account of injuries and/or a decline.

Gone for a fiver on Albion 0 Liverpool 2 at 14/1.
Early payout at 0-2, then stick half of the winnings on a 2-2.
I won't be retiring anytime soon even if I win.

Liverpool are favourites, and they should be. However we started the week at 3/1. We are now under 2/1. The bookies did get it wrong and they’ve already admitted that.

If they start a midfield 3 of Fabinho, Tiago & Henderson we’ve got every chance of doing something big here. Those 3 are absolute plodders and Mac & Moises would run rings around them.

If Nabby Keita starts then we’ll have to be careful for the first 20 minutes until the pritt stick and lollipops his bones are connected with inevitably break down.
