Liverpool vs Brentford 06.05.2023

Liverpool will continue their push for top-flight European football when they host Brentford on Saturday. The Reds head into this clash on the back of a 1-0 home win against Marco Silva’s Fulham, their 5th victory in a row. This current run came after an initial dismal form which saw Klopp’s men lose 4 straight games out of 6, picking up a draw in the remaining 2. Here, Liverpool are expected to be propelled by the Anfield crowd, their current form, and their hunger for Champions League football next season.

For Brentford, they would be looking to do a double over Liverpool having won the reverse fixture 3-1 back in January. Now, they face a much more different Liverpool side who look more confident and determined to finish the season on a high. With 4 games to go for Brentford, they are 9th on the log with 50 points on the board. Looking at the points tally of clubs around the mid-table area, Brentford knows getting a decent result in their remaining games could be crucial in making at least a Conference League place. Hence, we expect that to be a motivation here.

As things stand, Liverpool are 5th on the log after 34 games, meaning every game matters at this point. Therefore, we expect them to put their all to get all 3 points here.
