The nuisance out to derail Liverpool's Premier League title bid - and a new puzzle for Jurgen Klopp to solve

Liverpool may have seen their unbeaten start come to an end in their first Premier League game of the New Year. But you would think they will return to winning ways today and re-establish their seven-point lead at the top over Manchester City. After all, they’ve yet to drop a point this season against a team from outside the top six, and their victories over Brighton & Hove Albion last season could not have been more comprehensive. But the Seagulls have improved since then, which was evident in their narrow 1-0 defeat at Anfield back in August. However, can they actually become the first side outside of City, Arsenal and Chelsea to take points off Jurgen Klopp’s side? We find out from Brian Owen, who covers the club for The Argus newspaper, before we hear from our Liverpool FC correspondent James Pearce after he attended Klopp’s press conference. Enjoy - and we’ll be back later today with the Post-Game podcast. For information regarding your data privacy, visit acast.com/privacy Learn more about your ad choices.
