Brentford v Liverpool Preview

Brentford’s Form

Brentford currently occupy 14th in the league following a disappointing record of 2 wins and 3 defeats from their last 5 league games. That means they’re currently 10 points off Brighton in 9th which was where they finished last season. This form has some questioning Thomas Frank, a remarkable turnaround for someone so successful as Brentford’s boss.

Last weekend Brentford earned themselves a 0-2 win against Wolves which could prove crucial come the end of the season with Norgaard and Toney on the scoresheet. Despite Wolves having more than 17 shots and an XG of 1.06, Brentford created far more effective chances with their 9 shots having an XG of 1.85.

Brentford despite occupying 14th, are 10th on the Expected Points table and in touching distance of 7th which suggests to me their underlying performances are far more promising than their league position suggests.

Liverpool’s Form

Liverpool look to be on a collision course with destiny, fighting for trophies on all fronts across Europe and domestic competitions. The first of those opportunities will come Sunday week against Chelsea in the EFL Cup Final. With Klopp departing come the end of the season, they’ll be well up for this game to ensure they keep their lead at the top for another week.

Liverpool last weekend had a 3-1 victory against Burnley following goals from Jota, Diaz and Nunez. It was no more than what they deserved from the stats with their 25 shots accumulating an XG of 3.15 compared to Burnley’s 9 shots and XG of 1.11. This victory made it 3 wins in their last 4 games in all competitions.

Liverpool, despite being first in the league, are third in the Expected Points Total with 46.37 nearly 8 full points less than their total of 54 suggesting an unsustainable level to their performances. However, they should still have far too much for Brentford in this game.

Key Players To Watch

Ivan Toney – Brentford

The Brentford hitman is back from his ban and back with a vengeance! Since his return, he captained and scored in their 3-2 victory against Nottingham Forest, which was followed by a goal in a 3-2 defeat against Tottenham and was rendered scoreless against City in their 1-3 defeat.

However, last weekend Toney was back on tab with a goal in their 0-2 victory against Wolves. There is plenty more to come from him in the next few months.

Darwin Nunez – Liverpool

The Uruguayan striker has had his fair share of critics since signing for Liverpool in 2022, particularly for not being the clinical finisher you’d expect when compared to the likes of Haaland and Kane in Europe.

However, last time out in the Premier League he scored in their 3-1 victory against Burnley. Almost remarkably (considering the criticism he gets) Nunez has a tally of 12 goals and 11 assists from 36 games in all competitions this season.

Brentford v Liverpool Prediction & Best Bet

Prediction: Brentford 0-2 Liverpool

Brentford have not been as strong as they were last season but remain a tough nut to crack especially with Ivan Toney back in the team and back scoring goals.

Liverpool are amidst their final title challenge under Klopp and with the side full of confidence, they’ll be fancied to be close again come May after a poor league season last year.

Although this is a 12:30 kick-off that Klopp loathes so much, I suspect they should still have enough here to win the game.

Best Bet: Liverpool Win + Under 2.5 Goals @ 4/1
