FA Cup weekends delight even the game's purists. It's never dull, so we're going to be entertained in this much-anticipated clash at Anfield.

Liverpool is back to its best after some dismal performances, and I believe they will make it through to the Round of 16. 

Here are my Liverpool vs. Brighton predictions and free betting picks for Saturday, February 14.

Liverpool vs Brighton picks and predictions

My Liverpool vs Brighton best bet: Liverpool moneyline (-172 at Sports Interaction)

Liverpool have won four of their last five matches against Brighton in all competitions, including a 2-0 win at Anfield earlier this season. 

After missing out on the chance to fight for another Premier League trophy, Liverpool has the FA Cup as their primary domestic objective. They are expected to include their best players in their Cup lineup, which makes them more than capable of securing the win.

Liverpool vs Brighton same-game parlay (SGP)

Liverpool moneyline

Over 9.5 corners

Hugo Ekitike anytime goalscorer

Dominik Szoboszlai 1+ shots on target

Liverpool's corners average stands at 5.81, with Brighton's at 4.92. There have been Over 9.5 corners in 54% of the games in which both Liverpool and Brighton were involved. Neither team will hold back from attacking, and I believe there will be plenty of context for corners.

I'm counting on Hugo Ekitike to make himself visible, too. He hasn't hit the net since Liverpool's 4-1 win over Newcastle on January 31, when he scored twice. The matches against City and Sunderland weren't as prolific, but the Frenchman is ready to go again.

To round up a nice +500 return for my SGP, I won't omit in-form Hungarian midfielder Dominik Szoboszlai either. He sent at least one shot on target in each of Liverpool's last four matches.
