Liverpool host Brentford on Sunday afternoon in a game between two in-form teams. The Bees have won their last three Premier League games, including a famous 2-0 win at Stamford Bridge, whilst Liverpool are riding high in third place, just three points off top spot.
Given their strong home record, Liverpool are big favourites on most betting apps to make it six wins from six at Anfield this season. But do our sports betting experts think the same? Read this article to find out their exclusive tip for the fixture.
Last week’s 1-1 draw at Luton was probably Liverpool’s worst display of the season. Their finishing was awful and they looked susceptible to Luton’s direct style of play. Jurgen Klopp will be looking for a big improvement this week.
The good news for Klopp is that the Reds have been imperious at Anfield this season. Five wins from five and just two goals conceded represents a superb return from their home fixtures. Klopp will be confident of continuing that run this weekend.
It’s taken a while for Brentford to find form this season, but Thomas Frank’s men have finally clicked into gear. Wins over Burnley, Chelsea and West Ham have propelled the Bees into the top half of the table. More impressively, they have been displaying the kind of form that secured them a top half finish last season. If they can produce something similar at Anfield they could cause a shock.
The sides have played each other four times previously in the Premier League, with Liverpool securing two wins and Brentford one. Both of the Reds’ victories have been at Anfield. Overall, they have beaten the Bees on 11 occasions, compared to just four wins for their opponents.
Our key stats for this fixture contain vital insights that will give you the best chance of finding a winning bet. So before you check out the betting odds for the game, don’t forget to go through these stats.
Liverpool are currently priced at just 2/5 for the victory, with Brentford available as 7/1 outsiders. The draw can be backed at 22/5.
Our betting bonus tip for the game is for a draw. Yes, Liverpool have a 100% home record, but Brentford are in superb form and more than capable of causing problems for the Reds. We think they will do enough to secure a vital point.
Four of Liverpool’s home wins so far have been against sides in the bottom half, so this will represent one of their stiffest tests so far. This means odds of 22/5 on a draw seem like excellent value, especially considering the Bees are on a three game winning run.
