BEWARE BRIGHTON IN THE FA CUP

Friends Of Liverpool

On the face of it Liverpool have been granted a favourable draw in the FA Cup 5th round with Championship side Brighton having to travel to Anfield in mid-February.

Kenny Dalglish’s men defeated the same opposition 2-1 at the brand new Amex Stadium earlier in the season in the Carling Cup with goals coming from Craig Bellamy and Dirk Kuyt.

Gus Poyet’s side play an attractive brand of football and they currently sit in 10th in the Championship.
Their Chairman, Dick Knight oversaw the building of a new stadium, the appointment of Poyet and the advancement of the club which once neared extinction.

However, expect the fairytale to end on the 18/19th of February when they come to Anfield as Liverpool will go all out for a victory to qualify for the quarter-finals of the FA Cup at Wembley.
