Liverpool and Brighton meet live for the second time in just four days, after a five-goal match last week.
Both managers made changes for the League Cup tie, so expect their big weapons to return for this match.
Liverpool is scheduled to host Brighton at Anfield at five o’clock Cairo time.
Liverpool is trying to repeat its victory over Brighton
Arne Slott was happy to see his side come from behind to draw with Arsenal in their last league match.
But losing more points today would be much more costly in the title race.
The coach will also have his eye on a difficult Champions League confrontation with Bayer Leverkusen in the next match.

As for Fabian Horzler, he considers the 3-2 result in the defeat to the Reds in the League Cup three days ago acceptable.
Brighton will be careful not to lose too much momentum after a frustrating draw with Wolverhampton last week in the league after conceding two goals in the final minutes.
Brighton’s coach knows that leaving Anfield today at any point would be a huge reward for his team.
4 players take turns scoring for Liverpool
Liverpool have shared the goals this season, with four players scoring at least four goals in all competitions.
Mohamed Salah tops the list with eight goals in 14 matches, while Luis Diaz comes in second with six goals, and both Cody Jacobo and Diogo Jota have four goals.
Darwin Nunez needs to add to his tally with two disappointing goals in 11 games under new coach Arne Slott.
Central defenders Virgil van Dijk and Ibrahima Konate also scored for the Slot team, with two goals each, and a goal each for Dominik Szoboszlai, Alexis McAllister, and Curtis Jones.
Brighton recovers Pedro’s efforts against Liverpool
Joao Pedro could make his long-awaited return from injury for Brighton against Liverpool.
The Brazilian forward has been sidelined since suffering an ankle injury during Brighton’s draw with Nottingham Forest in September, having just returned from another injury sustained on international duty.
Pedro has missed Brighton’s last five matches in all competitions, with Seagulls coach Fabian Horzeler urging patience with his recovery with the club understandably hesitant to rush one of their most important players back into action too early.
The 23-year-old scored 20 goals in all competitions last season and so far this season Brighton have been able to rely on Danny Welbeck in attack, scoring six goals in 11 matches.
While captain Louis Dunk is also seeking to be fit after missing the midweek match due to an injury he suffered last week.
Ferdi Kadioglu is expected to be available after a foot problem, but Adam Webster, James Milner, Matt O’Reilly and Solly March remain unavailable for selection.

Liverpool will make changes today as Arne Slott prepares to face Brighton for the second time in four days.
An entertaining 3-2 win on the south coast on Wednesday night secured the Reds a League Cup quarter-final clash with Southampton.
Although the likes of Mohamed Salah, Darwin Nunez and Alexis McAllister started the game on the bench.
All three should return to the starting line-up at Anfield, along with Virgil van Dijk, as attention returns to the Premier League title race.
Diogo Jota remains absent and is not expected to return before the November international break.
The same can also be said for goalkeeper Alisson Becker and Harvey Elliott.

Slot gave a worrying update on Chiesa before the cup win over Brighton, telling reporters: “I don’t expect him to be in the team. Sometimes, he is there with us, training for a few days, and then he goes out injured again.”
The fact that Slot prefers to play with a real striker is a clear indication that Nunez will likely be brought back into the starting line-up on Saturday, especially when we take into account that the Liverpool coach does not seem to want to use Cody Jacobo or Luiz Diaz as a centre-forward and with Jota still missing. .
Liverpool are unbeaten in their last three matches against Brighton and won this match 2-1 last season thanks to a goal by Mohamed Salah.
Brighton beat Liverpool twice in the 2022/23 season but both victories came at home, with the Seagulls’ last win coming at Anfield in February 2021.
