Brighton defender Dan Burn insists they can test Liverpool

Brighton defender Dan Burn insists they can test Liverpool tonight.

Brighton lost to the Reds earlier this season 2-1, though pushed them close.

Burn said, “I thought we matched them for most of that game. They scored from two set-pieces which we're normally good at defending, so that was quite unlike us.

“If the game had gone on a little bit longer, we might have picked something up. But it showed why Liverpool are champions this year - even when not playing well they are still picking up the results they need.

“We know it's going to be a really tough game but we want to prove that we can take on the best and we will be ready for them."
