Liverpool Stats & Team News
It has been a disastrous defense of the Premier League title for Liverpool this season, and their spot in next season’s Champions League is yet to be confirmed. The Reds come into this round after losing two of their last three, with defeats against Aston Villa and Man United putting unneeded pressure on this final day assignment.
This weekend will be all about Salah’s farewell, with the attacker scoring 257 goals in 441 games for the Reds. However, whether he starts the game is up for debate after attacking Arne Slot’s tactics on social media following the 4-2 loss against Villa.
Likely Line-Up:
(4-2-3-1): Alisson (GK); Gomez, Konate, van Dijk, Robertson; Jones, Gravenberch; Salah, Wirtz, Gakpo; Isak
Brentford Stats & Team News
It has been a season to remember for Brentford in their first season under Keith Andrews. The Bees could yet end the campaign in a European spot for the first time in their history, but an improved performance will be required this weekend to secure that berth.
Brentford have won just one of their last nine. Although, it could be worth noting that their only defeats over the same period have been suffered against Man United and Man City. Igor Thiago has been their standout star, scoring a remarkable 42% of the team’s goals.
Likely Line-Up:
(4-2-3-1): Kelleher (GK); Kayode, Ajer, Collins, Lewis-Potter; Henderson, Janelt; Ouattara, Jensen, Damsgaard; Thiago
Head-to-Head Trends

Liverpool vs. Brentford Picks
It has been a weak season for Liverpool after heavy investment last summer, but the campaign looks set to end on a positive note against a team that they have dominated at Anfield. Salah could get himself on the scoresheet for the final time as a Liverpool player.
