Brentford vs Liverpool betting tips and summary
Brentford to win or a draw – out of form opponent
Both teams to score – strong recent trend in both team’s matches
Hugo Ekitke to have over 0.5 shots on target – scored midweek and should return to his favoured position
Saturday night football comes from West London, where Brentford host out of form Liverpool in the English Premier League.
The hosts are looking to make it back-to-back wins following the international break, after success over West Ham in Monday night’s London derby.
Goals from Igor Thiago and Mathias Jensen sealed manager Keith Andrew’s side’s first away win of this season’s EPL, momentum which the Bees will look to use as they welcome reigning champions Liverpool.
Manager Arne Slot’s machine had stopped paying out prior to a hammering over Eintracht Frankfurt in midweek.
That 5-1 victory saw the reds end a run of four consecutive losses across all competitions and followed a shock defeat at Old Trafford, in their latest English Premier League match.
A late Harry Maguire header sealed a rare defeat at home to bitter rivals Manchester United, as Liverpool lost their third consecutive EPL match – after winning all of their opening six.
What are the best bets for Brentford vs Liverpool?
Brentford to win or draw
Brentford are very hard to beat at home and with Liverpool potentially jaded from their midweek clash and showing poor domestic form, this could be a good time to strike.
Both teams to score
This has landed in two of Brentford’s last three English Premier League home matches and in three of Liverpool’s last four away league matches.
Hugo Ekitike to have over 0.5 shots on target
With record transfer Alexander Isak yet to do anything of note in a Liverpool shirt, Hugo Ekitike should get back into the starting side and play in his favoured position.
Isak also picked up a knock in the match against Eintracht Frankfurt.
