Brentford and Liverpool meet in clearly contrasting conditions. The hosts are unbeaten in the league, while the visitors have just thrashed their opponents 6-3 in Europe after closing out their league game with a 0-3 defeat. Brentford have drawn a lot but have never been beaten, with a defence solid enough, conceding 6 goals in 6 games, while Liverpool still cannot find their attacking rhythm in the league, scoring only 7 goals from 6 games, though the quality of their attack in Europe remains. If Brentford score first, the game will become even more of a grind and Liverpool will have to commit more to attack, but if Liverpool get the opening goal, they will control the tempo and play to their plan more comfortably, which is likely how this game ends.
