Brentford F.C. and Liverpool F.C. are getting ready to play against each other for the second time in the current Premier League season. The first game took place on 25 August, where hosting Liverpool won 2 – 0.
This time round, The Bees will be hosting Liverpool on their home turf. The game is scheduled for Saturday, 18 January at the Gtech Community Stadium in West London. Liverpool is currently seen as the top contender for the title, while Brentford misses the top 10 in the league table by just one position.
The relationship between the Danish coach Thomas Frank and Brentford goes back to 2016 when Frank was first appointed assistant head coach. Two years later he was promoted to the position of the head coach and has been with the club to the current season.
Arne Slot, on the other hand, is in his first season with Liverpool. He took this position over from Jürgen Klopp on 1 June 2024 after the latter retired from football. With several significant achievements to his record and Liverpool’s current position in the Premier League table, Slot’s tenure is seen as quite successful so far.
Currently, the Premier League 2024-25 season table looks the following:
