Liverpool Should Have No Problems Against Brighton
If Liverpool beat Brighton at Anfield they will finish fourth and deny Chelsea a place in the Champions League. The home team have got a much superior goal difference which is worth an extra point so a draw would suffice. Brighton have nothing on the line so its hard to see them avoiding defeat away at the Champions League finalists. Liverpool have found the net before the break in all but one of their last nine fixtures at home. The odds on a Liverpool win are short but the LIVERPOOL/LIVERPOOL double result pays 4/6 with Ladbrokes.
Chelsea must beat Newcastle away from home to take advantage of any Liverpool slip up.

Newcastle’s last seven league matches have seen the winners prevail by one goal and something similar is expected today. Chelsea could sneak a tight match so ONE-NIL to the visitors is 15/2 with William Hill.
