I feel like we have tired a little over the past two weeks now and this one will be a bit of a physical challenge. We need to be up for a serious set piece battle as well.
3-3 against Brentford was the game that cost us the title Imho other season (that’s what I was holding against them MITO lmao) will they hurt us again this season Think this is a very tough fixture One of those teams set up to hurt us edit Taylor reffing We have no chance
it's this simple. Taylor and Tierney should be just outright banned as mancs and obvious mancs gaming the system to get big games and finals.
CHRIS SUTTON'S PREDICTION. Liverpool v Brentford (17:30) Liverpool's attack is firing at the moment and I really like the look of their forward line. They need to win every game to have a chance of getting in the Champions League next season, but even Reds boss Jurgen Klopp feels it is unlikely they will make it from here. I don't even think they will beat Brentford, to be honest, because the Bees look like they are back on it after having a bit of of a blip a few weeks ago. The way Thomas Frank's side came back late on to beat Nottingham Forest last week was a sign they are not on their holidays yet and they have made a habit of upsetting the big clubs this season. Brentford deservedly beat Liverpool in January and I am going with the same outcome here. Sutton's prediction: 1-2 Andrew's prediction: Liverpool have hit a bit of form but I think Brentford have got an efficiency about them and look so dangerous with Ivan Toney up top - they will relish going to Anfield. I am going for a Bees win which will wind my dad up, but I do also think Liverpool still need to sort out their defensive issues. 1-2
JONES KNOWS: SKY SPORTS PREDICTIONS. Liverpool vs Brentford, Saturday 5.30pm, live on Sky Sports - PLAY SUPER 6 HERE Since Jurgen Klopp tweaked Trent Alexander-Arnold's position ahead of the draw with Arsenal, Liverpool's performance levels have spiked, with there being much more emphasis on his creative skills being utilised in a more central position. In his last six appearances, he is registering 17 per cent more touches in the centre of the pitch while his touches down the right flank data has dropped by over 40 per cent. He has registered six assists in that period - that's four more than he managed in the previous 27 Premier League appearances while his overall attacking metrics are incredibly impressive. No Premier League player in the last six games has created more chances (15), had more touches of the ball (675) or made more penalty box entries (63) than Alexander-Arnold. All this evidence points towards the 15/8 with Sky Bet on him registering another assist being a slice of value. But we can push it further when assessing the opposition. This tactical tweak to see Alexander-Arnold play more centrally is going to increase his goal and shots output over the longer-term. We started to see signs of it against Fulham in midweek, where he registered three shots, almost scoring with a daisy-cutter drive that whipped past the post. He's now had six shots in his last three games - all of which came from outside the box. Brentford are in town, who notoriously defend deep and allow opposition teams plenty of space outside their box. They have faced the most shots (214) and shots on target (69) from outside the box this season in the Premier League. This should see Alexander-Arnold drift into dangerous positions for strikes on goal, so the 11/4 with Sky Bet for him to have a shot on target from outside the box looks to have potential - as does the 9/1 for him to score from outside the box. Remember, he is also on free-kicks which adds an extra avenue of attack for both bets. SCORE PREDICTION: 2-1
Chris Sutton hates us , I don’t know or care about the other clown. Yes, it has been a disappointing season and yes, we have been unpredictable but Brentford are not Man City, they are a decent mid table club but nothing special. Let’s keep the run going lads
Arsenal are not going to win the league anyway. Brentford conceded ,more goals than us and we scored more than them also.

Brentford are not playing for anything. No realistic chance of Europe and safe from relegation. Should be an easy match especially at home. 3-0 and another crucial 3 points.
Interested to see what Jimmy and MITO moan about after the game today then, especially if we fail to win. They can't refer to they standard script (unless it's Milner instead) Not that MITO will struggle too much, he moans about every player
