Liverpool vs Brentford: Prediction, kick off time, TV, live stream, team news, h2h results - preview today
Brentford travel to Liverpool today hoping to emulate their heroics in one of the best games of the Premier League season so far.
A 3-3 draw in West London back in September summed up all that was good and bad about both teams. An attacking spectacle built on high energy, defensive concerns are as prevalent for Thomas Frank as they are for Jurgen Klopp, it seems.
Neither side head into the game in brilliant form, either.
While Liverpool’s Carabao Cup semi-final with Arsenal in finely poised for a thriller at the Emirates Stadium next week, the manner of their performance was certainly disappointing given how long they played against ten men.
Brentford, meanwhile, were roundly beaten 4-1 away at Southampton on Tuesday night, only adding to their problems on the road.
