Brentford vs Liverpool live stream: How to watch Premier League fixture online and on TV tonight

Liverpool travel to Brentford tonight looking to continue their strong start to the Premier League season.

Jurgen Klopp’s side defeated Crystal Palace 3-0 last weekend to set the early pace at the top of the table with four wins and a draw from their opening five fixtures, where they have been joined by Chelsea and Manchester United.

Brentford were inspired by a “10/10” performance from striker Ivan Toney as Thomas Frank’s team won 2-0 at Wolves for their second victory of the Premier League campaign.

These sides have not met in a competitive fixture since 1989, with their last league fixture taking place in 1947, and are both coming off comprehensive mid-week wins in the Carabao Cup.

Prediction

The Brentford Community Stadium is set to be bouncing as they welcome Liverpool but Jurgen Klopp’s side are in form and have the big-game experience to quieten the home crowd early. Mo Salah and Sadio Mane are in good goalscoring form and that should make the Reds too strong for Brentford here. Brentford 1-3 Liverpool
