Tipster’s Angle

This will be their second head-to-head match with the first one ending in a six-goal thriller. This one is expected to pan out the same way, but Liverpool might come out victorious as they are playing at home.

Tip: Both Teams To Score @ 2.05

Liverpool has seen both teams score in six of their previous eight encounters, while Brentford has seen the same feat in four of their last eight matchups. Both teams scored in the reverse fixture last season, which had six goals scored. In the last three matches that Liverpool has played at home, they have seen both teams scoring in all three matches. Brentford has also seen both teams scoring in two of their last three away matches. As a result, both teams are expected to score at the Betway sportsbook’s 2.05 odds.

Tip: Total Goals Over 2.5 @ 1.65

Liverpool is averaging 2.5 goals per match, while Brentford is averaging 1.2 goals per match. In the last eight matches that Liverpool had played across all competitions, over 2.5 goals were scored in six of those matches. Brentford on the other hand has seen over 2.5 goals in four of the last eight matches that they have played across competitions. Also, over 2.5 goals were scored in three of the last four matches that Liverpool has played on home soil, while Brentford has seen over 2.5 goals in two of the last three away matches. So, over 2.5 goals are very likely to happen at 1.65 odds available at the Betway sportsbook.

Liverpool needs to start winning matches to reduce the gap at the top of the table otherwise, Manchester City is likely to go all the way. Brentford on the other hand is likely to finish in the mid-table if they continue their form.
