Premier League, Sunday, 25.08.2024 at 17:30
Both picked up a win at the start of the season and both are now looking to build on this result and score the next three.
The Reds and the Bees face each other early on Sunday evening. However, if we look at recent matches, the roles should be clearly defined.
Accordingly, my Liverpool Brentford tip is for a clear affair for the home side
The start was already promising. New coach Arne Slot and his team won 2-0 at newly promoted Ipswich Town.
Now it’s time for the first home game. This will be the Dutchman’s first time at Anfield Road as LFC coach. If he wins again, he would be the first coach since Graeme Souness to do so
Whatever the coach, the hosts have been in outstanding form at home. They have lost only two of their last 61 PL home games (46S, 13U).
They have also never lost a home opener in the last 20 seasons (15S, 5U), winning ten of their last eleven.
So it should be clear to all of you how clear the Reds are as favorites. This is also reflected in the predictions for the Liverpool Brentford betting tip.
If the three-way bets are too low for you, you can also take a look at the handicap bets from Betway Sportwetten.
If the Reds win by at least a two-goal margin, the odds there are just over 1.60. In the previous season, they won both games with a three-goal difference.
However, the visitors should not be underestimated. They have taken their strong form from last season into the current one
As mixed as the past season may have been for the Bees, the end was somewhat conciliatory.
They have won four of their last seven matches. That’s as many victories as in the previous 21 combined
Only Anfield Road has rarely been a good place for them. In the Premier League, they lost all three of their guest appearances and failed to score a goal.
So will it be another one-nil defeat for the Londoners this time? At least the bookmakers at Intertops are cautiously optimistic.
You’ll find odds of around 2.30 for your Liverpool Brentford bet there, which are similarly high if the Reds win and both teams score.
Who is responsible for scoring goals for the visitors is clear: Not Ivan Toney. The England international will leave the club and is no longer in the squad.
Yoane Wissa has turned out to be the go-to-guy in recent games. He has scored once in each of the last three matches and set up at least one goal
If he scores again, the bookmakers at Winamax are offering odds of just over 4.50 in the Liverpool Brentford betting tip.
Mo Salah also managed a goal and an assist last weekend. It was the 32nd time the Egyptian had scored such a brace. Of course, the Bees will have to watch out for him
The Arne Slot era got off to a good start. Now it should continue in front of a home crowd. A win against one of our favorite opponents is likely.
I also think it will be a high-scoring affair. In five of the six PL duels between the two teams so far, one side has scored at least three goals.
Therefore, my Liverpool Brentford tip is: The Reds win and at least four goals are scored!
