**Brighton, UK –** Brighton & Hove Albion host newly crowned Premier League champions Liverpool tonight at the Amex Stadium (20:00 BST) in a match with significant implications for the Seagulls’ European aspirations. While Liverpool have already secured the title, manager Arne Slot has acknowledged the challenge of maintaining peak motivation in his squad.

The good news for Brighton is captain Lewis Dunk is back from injury, and Joao Pedro is available after a ban. Winger Kaoru Mitoma could also return.

The match promises to be an exciting encounter, with both teams having plenty to play for as the Premier League season draws to a close.
