There’s always a certain buzz around Anfield hours before kick-off. The smell of pie, the hum of anticipation, a few songs drifting over from the stands – you never quite know what you’ll get, but you know you want to be there. This autumn, Liverpool take on Brighton Hove at home, and it’s shaping up to be another must-see in the calendar.
What’s the match?
It’s a Premier League showdown – matchday 8, no less. Liverpool are on their own turf, hosting Brighton Hove at Anfield. A chance for the reds to build momentum, and for fans to shout themselves hoarse. No guarantees of drama, but if you’ve followed this fixture before, you’ll know it’s usually anything but dull.
When is it on?
The match takes place on Saturday, 25 October 2026, with kick-off set for 14:00. If you’re heading down, probably best to be in your seat well before then – nothing worse than missing the first roar from the Kop because you got caught queuing for a pie.
Where?
Where else? Anfield, Liverpool, L4 0TH. There’ll be all the usual atmosphere, from the banners waving to the shouts echoing off the walls. If you’re lucky enough to have a ticket, soak it up – there’s nowhere quite like it.
Tickets
