Brentford Form

Thomas Frank’s Brentford have slipped to 10th in the Premier League after just one win in seven. The Bees have also lost five of their previous eight in all competitions.

Brentford were winless in six, losing five in all competitions before thrashing the Premier League’s bottom side Southampton 5-0. The West Londoners were then stunned by Plymouth in the FA Cup, losing 1-0 at the Gtech.

The Bees managed to claw back from two goals down to draw 2-2 with Man City last time out. Frank’s side trailed 2-0 after 77 minutes and Yoane Wissa and Christian Noorgard scored late to complete the comeback.

Brentford Injuries & Team News

Midfielders Josh Dasilva and Ryan Trevitt are injured and unlikely to play.

Defenders Ethan Pinnock, Kristoffer Ajer and Aaron Hickey are sidelined with injuries and set to miss out.

Attacking duo Igor Thiago and Gustavo Nunes are also injured and unavailable here.

Bryan Mbeumo and Yoane Wissa have scored 24 of Brentford’s 40 Premier League goals this season.

Liverpool Form

Liverpool are still top of the Premier League with a four-point buffer over second-place Arsenal. Arne Slot’s outfit have won 14 of 20 league games and lost just once.

The Reds put together a three-match winning streak over Christmas before a 2-2 home draw with Man United. A 1-0 EFL Cup loss and a 5-0 FA Cup triumph over Accrington followed.

The Merseysiders drew a second consecutive league game on Tuesday at Nottingham Forest. Slot’s side conceded in the first half, replied with 2.72 XG and Diogo Jota equalised with 25 minutes left.

Liverpool Injuries & Team News

Centre-back Joe Gomez is Liverpool’s only absentee for the trip to Brentford.

Mo Salah is set to keep his place in attack. He has scored in five consecutive away games.

Verdict

Brentford v Liverpool

Brentford’s form has dipped and the Bees are without several first-team players here. Liverpool can take advantage and get back to winning ways following back-to-back draws.
