Brentford
Brentford will be without Joshua Dasilva due to a knee injury, Gustavo Nunes due to a back injury, Rico Henry due to a knee injury, Aaron Hickey due to a thigh injury, Igor Thiago with a knee injury, Ethan Pinnock with a thigh injury, and Kristoffer Ajer because of an ankle injury.

The Bees will shape up in a 4-3-3 formation, with Mark Flekken in goal. Mads Roerslev and Keane Lewis-Potter will start as the full-backs here. They will look to keep things tight at the back and hit Liverpool on the break. Nathan Collins will start alongside Ben Mee at the heart of the defence.

As for the midfield unit, Vitaly Janelt will start alongside Christian Norgaard and Mikkel Damsgaard in the middle of the park. Janelt and Norgaard will keep things compact defensively and Damsgaard will add creativity to the side. Kevin Schade will lead the line for Brentford vs Liverpool, with Bryan Mbeumo and Yoane Wissa on either side of him.

Liverpool
Liverpool will be without Joe Gomez due to a thigh injury. Meanwhile, Diogo Jota is a doubt for the weekend.

The Reds are likely to shape up in a 4-2-3-1 formation, with Alisson Becker in goal. Trent Alexander-Arnold and Andrew Robertson will start as the full-backs, and they will look to help out at both ends of the pitch. Ibrahima Konate will pair up with Virgil van Dijk at the heart of the defence.

As for the midfield unit, Alexis Mac Allister and Ryan Gravenberch will add defensive cover and control to the side from the deep. Dominik Szoboszlai will start as the attacking midfielder, and he will look to create goalscoring opportunities for his teammates.

Mohamed Salah and Luis Diaz will add creativity and goals from the wide areas, with Darwin Nunez leading the line for Liverpool vs Brentford at the Gtech Communit Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

Brentford possible starting lineup:
Flekken; Roerslev, Van den Berg, Collins, Lewis-Potter; Norgaard, Janelt, Jensen; Mbeumo, Wissa, Damsgaard

Brentford vs Liverpool Head-to-Head and Key Numbers
Liverpool have a good historical record against Brentford and have won 14 out of the 22 matches played between the two teams, as opposed to Brentford's paltry four victories.
Brentford have won only one of their last seven matches against Liverpool in the Premier League and have lost each of their last four such games, with their previous such victory coming by a 3-1 scoreline in January 2023.
Liverpool have found the back of the net in each of their seven matches against Brentford in the Premier League and have kept clean sheets in four of these games.
Brentford have lost five of their last seven matches against teams starting the day at the top of the Premier League table, with both their positive results against such teams coming in 2023.

Prediction: Brentford 1-2 Liverpool
Goals at both ends are almost always a guarantee at the Gtech Community Stadium, where Brentford should sense an opportunity against a Liverpool side who have failed to carry their 2024 ruthlessness into 2025 so far. However, Slot is not short of options for change whatsoever, and Brentford still have not kept a single clean sheet at home this season, so the Reds should be able to fight fire with fire and get their title pursuit back on track.
