Liverpool travel to Gtech Community Stadium following two contrasting matches. First, Andoni Iraola's side faltered to a 0-3 loss against Manchester City, but then bounced back with an impressive 6-3 victory over LASK in the Champions League.
Meanwhile, Brentford remain unbeaten this season. In their last outing, Kitt Andrews' team played out a 2-2 draw with Aston Villa, while prior to that, they confidently dispatched Chelsea 3-0.
The main concern for Liverpool ahead of the match is their squad depth. Ryan Gravenberch will miss the fixture due to suspension, and the availability of Cody Gakpo, Alexander Isak, and Dominik Szoboszlai is still uncertain. Andoni Iraola has already confirmed that he intends to continue his rotation strategy due to the congested schedule.
The hosts also have their own injury woes. Kevin Schade and Yannick Schuster have trained on the pitch throughout the week, but a decision on their fitness will be made closer to the match. Nathan Collins and Mikkel Damsgaard are also working their way back from injuries.
For Liverpool, this match represents another test of their stability. After scoring six goals in Europe, they must prove they can carry that attacking momentum into a contest against a side that hasn't yet tasted defeat.
The match kicks off at 17:00 MSK.
