Albion will not be fooled this time when they face Liverpool at the Amex on Saturday.

They were undone in cheeky fashion by one of the goals in their 5-1 thrashing in the corresponding fixture last season.

Philippe Coutinho, subsequently sold to Barcelona, placed a free-kick under the defensive wall as the Albion players jumped (below).

The Argus: The technique became popular for a while but the Seagulls and others are wise to it now.

Pascal Gross crouched behind the defensive wall with an outstretched leg to safeguard against a repeat by Lucas Digne when Liverpool's neighbours Everton visited the Amex last month.

Albion are also less likely now to concede in the way Liverpool scored their first goal last season.

Emre Can put them ahead with a header from a Coutinho corner.

Albion have reversed the trend then of conceding from set pieces to become prolific from them at the other end.

Two-thirds of their 24 Premier League goals this season have originated from dead ball situations.

The pattern continued when Florin Andone headed in their clinching third goal from a corner routine in Saturday's FA Cup win at Bournemouth.
