Brentford vs Liverpool: It is an enthralling return to the Premier League action as Brentford welcome league leaders Liverpool at the Brentford Community Stadium on Saturday, January 18. In what will be a highly anticipated and much-worth-produced match, the event can be believed to bring along a lot of excitement since either side is desperate to make sure that they put their utmost talent among the best during the time. Liverpool enter this one trying to maintain their lead at the top of the table, while Brentford are buoyant following their draw with Manchester City. Here is a deeper look into what to expect: form analysis, team news, and expert betting insight.
Liverpool have been in imperious form this season, bossing teams with flair and discipline in attack. Draws in recent weeks against Manchester United and Nottingham Forest have not changed the fact that the Reds remain unbeaten away from home. Their ability to score through the dynamism of Mohamed Salah at pivotal times has maintained their top spot in the Premier League.
Liverpool last visited Nottingham Forest, where Diogo Jota was on the score sheet, and they were held to a 1-1 tie. With 71% possession, the team dominated the game and made 23 attempts on goal but let away a goal on the break so Nottingham could leave with a point. Such moments of vulnerability may give Brentford hope of exploiting similar weaknesses.
Liverpool manager Arne Slot will once more have to count on his team’s firepower as they target those precious three points. Averaging 3.33 goals over the last six games, the Reds can overrun any obstacle in their path.
With goals from Yoane Wissa and Christian Nørgaard highlighting 2-2 tie against Manchester City, Brentford has demonstrated its potential to challenge top teams in the league. Still a challenge is inconsistency; hence, more injury setbacks to Aaron Hickey, Kristoffer Ajer, and Igor Thiago could affect their performance.
Currently sitting mid-table, Brentford will look to build on their strong home form. Manager Thomas Frank has instilled resilience in his team, but their defensive frailties and inability to secure wins against Liverpool in their last four encounters highlight the challenge they face.
Brentford (LDLWLD)
A recent 2-2 draw against Manchester City underlined Brentford’s fighting spirit, as, with just 45% possession, they were able to create 18 attempts, six on target. This offensive determination will be crucial against Liverpool.
