On Sunday afternoon (25/08/24), Liverpool welcome Brentford to Anfield in what should be a very interesting Premier League encounter. Below, we've put together a few Bet Builder tips for the clash at Villa Park.
Liverpool have an excellent recent head-to-head record when facing the Bees, with the Merseysiders winning four of the last five meetings between the two sides, including the last three on the bounce. Liverpool lost only one Premier League game at Anfield last season and Brentford haven't managed a win on Liverpool's patch since 1937.
Ryan Gravenberch committed a total of 20 fouls in 12 full 90s completed last season, and in the new deep-lying midfield role that manager Arne Slot has entrusted him with there is an added defensive demand placed on the Dutchman's shoulders, as seen by the fact he committed five fouls at Portman Road last weekend.
Trent Alexander-Arnold has registered three shots on target in his last five Premier League games. The defender is now Liverpool's main set-piece taker, making him a direct shot threat at all times, underlined by the fact he registered nearly two shots on goal per game last season.
Mohamed Salah has a fantastic recent record against Brentford, with the Egyptian having netted four times in his last three games against the West London club. Salah also comes into this game having scored in Liverpool's opening game of the season.
Yoane Wissa is a handful in Brentford's forward line, with the Congolese man Brentford's most fouled player last season, drawing 51 total fouls in 28 full 90s completed. In Brentford's season opener against Crystal Palace last weekend, Wissa drew four fouls.
Christian Nørgaard was Brentford's joint-most carded player last season with a total of eight bookings, while also being the Brentford player responsible for committing the most fouls (41).
