Liverpool vs Brentford Preview and Livestream

Liverpool looked like title favourites early in the campaign, for their consistent form and ability to get crucial results over the line were just the credentials required by a title challenger in the Premier League. However, Manchester City’s own blistering run of 12 straight victories, coupled with the Reds dropping unnecessary points against opposition they should be beating has seen them drop to 3rd in the table, a massive 11 points behind the league leaders. A top four finish is now looking like one of the most realistic aspirations for Liverpool this season as Jurgen Klopp’s men also have to deal with the absence of Salah and Mane, who are at AFCON, for this month.

Thomas Frank’s Brentford have been slowly but surely establishing their rightful place in the Premier League this term. A rigid yet expansive style of play implemented by their Danish coach has gone a long way in the Bees’ push for a surprise Europa League spot. A win against a weakened Liverpool side might just prove to be the confidence boost they need to achieve the unthinkable this campaign.

Liverpool vs Brentford Prediction

Liverpool are sorely missing the squad depth from earlier in the season which has vanished through injuries, COVID and the AFCON. Brentford are in decent form going into the match and with the Reds’ shortage up front, it could prove a mouth-watering contest for the Bees. We predict Thomas Frank’s team will give it a tough fight to emerge with a 1-1 draw at Anfield.
