Brighton chief exec Paul Barber has warned Liverpool about their expectations of being confirmed Premier League champions amid the the competition's suspension.

The season has been suspended for three weeks due to the coronavirus scare in the UK.

Barber told BBC Sport: "If we were to freeze the league, then for me it would be incredibly unjust for Liverpool not to be awarded the title because I think everybody in the game appreciates what a fantastic season they've had and what a wonderful team they are.

“But equally, it would be incredibly unjust for teams to be relegated when there is still games to play and the financial consequences of that are difficult, and it's equally unjust for Leeds and West Brom to not be promoted because we know how hard it is to get out of the Championship, we know how hard it is for teams to even get to this stage of the season in the top two."
