Hurzeler poised for big decision - and it looks like Webster gets the nod

Fabian Hurzeler faces a defensive decision as he prepares his Albion side to face the new Premier League champions. But there are indications Adam Webster could keep his place at home to Liverpool. Webster returned to the side in place of skipper Lewis Dunk at Wolves and was involved in a clean sheet for the sixth time in 2025. Dunk was said to have a minor hamstring issue but, along with Joel Veltman, is available again for Monday's game (8pm). Albion boss Hurzeler said: 'Of course it won't be an easy decision but Lewis wasn't able to train some days so he's not on his highest physical level. 'Therefore, Adam deserved to play and Adam will deserve to play the next game. 'Then I always say it's competition and they are both leaders, they are both important players on the pitch and beside the pitch for me. 'And, like I always emphasise, it's important from our skipper. BRIGHTON TEAM NEWS FOR LIVERPOOL MATCH 'No matter if Lewis will start or not start, he will be in the squad and he has an impact on our team by his authority, by his experience, by his voice. So, I'm happy that he's in the squad and let's see if he can get some game time.' Kaoru Mitroma is a doubt for the Liverpool game and the fixtures comes too soon for Georginio Rutter. But Joao Pedro has now completed a three-match ban.

He's there, he's ready - has Webster's impressive return given boss a decision?

Adam Webster has given Albion a defensive decision to make against the new champions. The centre-back was an impressive contributor to the 2-0 win at Wolves on his first outing for six weeks. Webster was called in on the eve of the match after Lewis Dunk withdrew with what is being described as a minor injury. Dunk is expected to be available for Liverpool's visit on Monday, by which time Albion will know whether eighth place will secure European football. But Webster has now played a major part in six clean sheets since January. Head coach Fabian Hurzeler said: 'Adam is always there for the team. 'No matter how many injuries he had this season. So far he was always ready to perform. 'That is not easy when you don't really get into the rhythm. 'I am very happy that he is in my team and always shows personality, always big character.

'From one second to another he knows he needs to play the next day in the Premier League. 'And he's there, he's ready. I don't know how he is doing it but it is just impressive and therefore I am really happy for him.'
