Is Liverpool vs Brentford on TV? Kick-off time, channel and how to watch Premier League fixture
Liverpool will look to continue a fine recent run of Premier League form as they welcome Brentford to Anfield.
Jurgen Klopp’s side have won five games in a row and now sit only four points back from Manchester United in fourth, though they have played a game more than their rivals.
Brentford’s own hopes of European qualification had been beginning to fade after a tough April, but two wins in four days have kept Thomas Frank’s team in the mix.
But a win on Merseyside might be a must if the London club are to challenge Aston Villa, Tottenham and Brighton ahead of them for a Europa League place.
