Brighton & Hove Albion suffered their first defeat in five Premier League matches yesterday as they were beaten by current champions Manchester City.
The Seagulls came in off the back of three successive defeats but failed to pick up any points thanks to goals from Ilkay Gundogan, Phil Foden (2) and Riyad Mahrez.
Despite the loss, Graham Potter’s side remain fourth in the league prior to sixth place Manchester United’s clash with Liverpool this afternoon.
Brighton will be hoping to secure their first win since their 2-1 victory over Leicester City in September next weekend, however they face another tough test in Liverpool who currently sit three points ahead of the south coast club.
