Brentford vs Liverpool Match Overview
Brentford vs Liverpool Match Overview
After three consecutive losses in the Premier League, reigning champions Liverpool will give their best to win against Brentford at the Brentford Community Stadium in London. Arne Slot’s boys are aware that they can’t allow themselves to lose points again. But against Brentford it’s never easy, especially away from home.
Until recently, probably no one expected that Liverpool could lose three consecutive times in the league. But it happened. Because of this, Liverpool are now four points behind the leader Arsenal, occupying the third spot in the standings. And that’s not good, especially knowing how much money the club spent in the summer.
Brentford are still getting used to life without Thomas Frank. The Bees are 13th in the standings with 10 points, but a win on Saturday could allow them to return to Top 10. Brentford won two of its last three games in the league, including against West Ham in the previous round.
Brentford News & Analysis
Winning twice in the last three rounds allowed Brentford to climb in the standings. Last weekend Keith Andrews’ boys paid a visit to West Ham and made it look easy with a 2-0 win. Igor Thiago and Mathias Jensen emerged as heroes for the Bees.
Igor Thiago is emerging as a key player for Brentford, especially in the attacking phase. The Brazilian striker has 5 goals in 8 Premier League games played so far. Liverpool’s defence will have to be extra careful about him.
Liverpool News & Analysis
After four consecutive losses in all competitions, Liverpool finally won again. And it was a pretty solid performance – a 5-1 win against Eintracht Frankfurt in the Champions League. Surely this will improve the team’s confidence before facing Brentford.
The Reds conceded the first goal in Frankfurt, but since then dominated the match and secured the three points. Hugo Ekitike equalised for Slot’s team while Virgil van Dijk, Ibrahima Konate, Cody Gakpo and Dominik Szoboszlai finished the job.
The good news for Liverpool is the performance of Florian Wirtz in Germany. The midfielder provided two assists for his teammates – his first goal contributions for Liverpool. Maybe now he will play with a bigger confidence.
