Liverpool vs Brentford: Pre-Match Facts

  • In a run stretching back to 1939, Liverpool have won each of their last five home games against Brentford, keeping a clean sheet each time.
  • Brentford have won just one of their six Premier League meetings with Liverpool (D1 L4). At least one team has scored 3+ goals in five of those six games, with the exception being a 1-0 win for the Reds in May 2023.
  • Liverpool have lost just two of their last 61 Premier League home games (W46 D13), while they haven’t lost at Anfield in the opening month of the season since 2015 (0-3 v West Ham).
  • Liverpool are looking to start their Premier League season with two consecutive wins for the first time since 2021-22, a season in which they started with an away win at a newly promoted East Anglian team (3-0 vs Norwich); they beat Ipswich 2-0 at Portman Road last weekend.
  • Brentford have won four of their last seven Premier League matches (D1 L2), more than in their previous 21 games combined (W3 D4 L14).
  • Arne Slot won his first Premier League game in charge of Liverpool on MD1 against Ipswich, with Graeme Souness in April 1991 the last Reds boss to win his opening two league games in charge. Liverpool had 50 touches in the opposition box against Ipswich, the most in a manager’s first ever game in charge in the Premier League that Opta has on record since 2008-09.
  • Brentford’s last away Premier League match of 2023-24 was a 2-1 win at Bournemouth – the Bees haven’t won consecutive away games since winning their final away game of 2022-23 (3-1 vs Spurs) and first away game of 2023-24 (3-0 vs Fulham).
  • Bryan Mbeumo could make his 100th Premier League appearance in this game, becoming the fourth Brentford player to hit that mark. Mbeumo averages a goal or assist every 108 minutes in games he plays without Ivan Toney (14 goals, 8 assists), compared to a goal involvement every 250 minutes in matches that feature him (9 goals, 13 assists).
  • Mohamed Salah scored and assisted in Liverpool’s 2-0 Premier League win over Ipswich on MD1, the 32nd time he has done so in a game in the competition, level with Thierry Henry. Only Wayne Rooney has both scored and assisted in more games in the history of the competition (36 games).
  • Yoane Wissa has scored and assisted in each of his last three Premier League appearances for Brentford, the first player to achieve that for any club since Riyad Mahrez in December 2021 for Man City. No player in Premier League history has scored and assisted in four consecutive appearances.
