Brentford
In their previous match, Brentford visited West Ham and defeated their local rivals, who are in a clear crisis, with a 2-0 scoreline. This marked the Londoners' third win in the current championship, along with a draw against Chelsea. Consequently, Keith Andrews' side sits in 13th place, five points clear of the relegation zone.
- Both teams scored in 7 of the club's last 10 Premier League games.
- Brentford has not lost in 6 of their last 8 home matches in the league (4 wins and 2 draws).
- At least 4 goals were scored in 5 of Brentford's last 7 home games in the Premier League.
Predicted lineup for Brentford (4-2-3-1)
Caoimhin Kelleher – Michael Kayode, Kristoffer Ajer, Nathan Collins, Sepp van den Berg – Yegor Yarmolyuk, Jordan Henderson – Dango Ouattara, Mikkel Damsgaard, Kevin Schade – Igor Thiago.
Defender Aaron Hickey will miss the match due to injury.
Liverpool
Arne Slot's side has suffered three consecutive defeats in the league. During this streak, the club lost 1-2 to Crystal Palace, Chelsea (both away), and Manchester United (at home). Including the loss to Galatasaray in the second round of the Champions League group stage, Liverpool has lost four matches in a row, a situation not seen since November 2014. Due to this poor run, the team has dropped to third place, now trailing leaders Arsenal by four points. It's worth noting that in the Premier League, only two other clubs, Fulham and Nottingham Forest, currently have a three-match losing streak.
- Both teams scored in 11 of Liverpool's last 13 Premier League matches.
- The club has not scored more than one goal in 5 of their last 6 league games.

Brentford vs. Liverpool: Match Prediction
Liverpool finds themselves in a challenging situation. The team hasn't lost three consecutive Premier League matches for a long time, so they will approach the upcoming game with maximum focus. If the club drops points again, they will fall out of the top four, which would be a significant blow to Liverpool's ambitions.
Brentford isn't a particularly formidable opponent. In their last 15 home Premier League matches, the Londoners have only secured 5 wins. Liverpool is well-capable of defeating the hosts, especially given their strong head-to-head record. Liverpool has won all 5 of their previous league encounters with Brentford, with the Londoners managing to score just one goal.
My prediction: Liverpool to win
