Brentford Form & Record Check
The Bees have performed very solidly so far this season and have repeatedly impressed with good results, especially at home. In their last five games, they have conceded two defeats to Nottingham and Arsenal, which were the only two home defeats so far, played draws against Brighton and, most recently, Manchester City, and also won 5-0 against Southampton.
In the table, their performance so far this season puts them in tenth place with 28 points, seven points behind the European places. They currently have little to worry about in terms of relegation, as they are twelve points above the drop zone.
Home strength
Brentford have been particularly convincing in home games this season. Driven on by their home crowd, they always perform at their best and can also frustrate big opponents, as they did to Manchester City on the last matchday.
In their previous 11 home games, Brentford have only drawn twice and have only been beaten twice, winning all of the remaining seven games. This record puts them third in the league for home form, just behind giants Liverpool and Arsenal. However, they have not won in their last three home games, so they urgently need three points to avert this trend.
Brentford facts & analysis
- Tenth place in the table
- One win in last five
- Last league game 2-2 vs Man City
Liverpool form & record check
Liverpool FC are on track to win the league again this year since 2019/20. They currently top the Premier League with 14 wins, five draws and only one defeat, and have a four-point lead over their London rivals, with the Reds even having a game in hand.
However, the Gunners have been able to catch up with Liverpool again in the last two weeks. This is also due to the fact that although the Reds have won three of their last five games, they only managed to draw against Manchester United and Nottingham on the last two matchdays. In the next game, they will need three points to maintain their current level of confidence and form.
Without any trouble
Even though their upcoming opponents from Brentford are very strong at home, Liverpool have nothing to worry about. They are the strongest team in the Premier League this season when playing away. They have won seven of their ten away games and drawn three. So far, they have not lost a single away game this season. Across both seasons, they are now unbeaten in 14 away games.
Liverpool facts & analysis
- League leaders
- 16 games unbeaten
- Last league game 1:1 against Nottingham
We don’t expect any major changes at Brentford. Coach Thomas Frank will again start his team in an offensive 4-3-3 formation and will likely field the same lineup as against Man City. For later in the game, former Freiburg players Schade and Yarmolyuk are an option.
Liverpool will also make only a few changes. In a 4-2-3-1, Arne Slot could again start Diogo Jota instead of Gakpo, with Jones also a possibility in offense.
head to head & stats
Brentford and Liverpool FC have played each other 17 times. All of these duels have been played in the Premier League. The numbers from previous duels speak clearly in favor of the Reds, who have already emerged victorious from this pairing nine times. The upcoming hosts have only achieved this feat four times. This fixture has also ended in a draw four times. In the last meeting in the first half of the season, Liverpool were able to live up to their role as favorites at home and won 2-0.
