This result was expected, we know how dangerous Brighton are from last season and they are replicating the same attitude of toughness this season making it very difficult for top teams to get a win against them. Playing away for Liverpool it was likely that the game will finish in a draw and so it was. The same as Newcastle United and westham, an expectated draw match which I don’t consider a bad result at all for all four clubs.
In fact, I predicted in a previous post that Brighton would make things difficult for Jurgen Klopp's squad in that match. In fact, sometimes this team's performance is unstable when playing against teams that are much weaker. However, when Brighton meets quite strong teams, it is not uncommon for them to play very impressively. It was proven that they were able to hold Liverpool to a draw. and previously, I favored De Zerbi's squad when they hosted Liverpool. However, it is not without reason that I say that in my considerations. The reason is that several Liverpool players had to be absent, apart from being injured, two of them were suspended due to red cards. Plus this match was played at Brighton headquarters. had taken the lead in the 20th minute, but unfortunately Liverpool was able to respond in the 40th minute and increase their lead in the 45+ minute. and in the end, the match became a draw after Lewis Dunk equalized. It's a shame, Brighton should have received a penalty when the Liverpool defender's hand touched the ball. on the other hand, 1 Liverpool player's shot hit the goalpost. So, let's wait for Brighton to visit Anfield, Liverpool's headquarters.
As for the other match, between West Ham vs Newcastle. This match is almost similar to the Brighton vs Liverpool match. I mean, West Ham took the lead in the 8th minute and Newcastle managed to equalize and even reverse the lead. but in the end, David Moyes' squad was able to equalize the score at 2-2 from a goal scored by Mohammed Kudus. In fact, Newcastle's performance is starting to get back on track. but unfortunately, after playing 4 winning matches in two different competitions, they had to be held to a draw by West Ham. which in the end both teams must share 1 point equally.
