Liverpool visit Brentford at the Gtech Community Stadium at 21:00 Vietnam time on 17 October. Bongda24h reports that the unbeaten hosts are fourth after six Premier League rounds, one point ahead of Liverpool, who return from a 6-3 Champions League win at LASK.
Brentford maintain a competitive run
Keith Andrews' team have drawn four of their six league games, most recently 2-2 away at Aston Villa. Their recent home programme also includes a 3-0 win over Chelsea.
Brentford are unbeaten in eight league home fixtures, with three wins and five draws. They took four points from Liverpool last season, winning 3-2 at Gtech and drawing 1-1 at Anfield.
Liverpool's latest European victory featured a Bradley Barcola hat-trick. Their preceding domestic match, however, ended in a 3-0 defeat by Manchester City.
Availability remains unsettled
Ryan Gravenberch is suspended following his red card against City. Hugo Ekitiké, Conor Bradley and Giovanni Leoni remain absent, while Andoni Iraola has not confirmed the availability of Dominik Szoboszlai, Alexander Isak or Cody Gakpo.
Brentford are monitoring Kevin Schade and Jannik Schuster after the Villa match, alongside Mikkel Damsgaard and Nathan Collins. Josh Dasilva, Antoni Milambo and Kaye Furo remain listed as unavailable.
The preview records five draws and two defeats for Iraola in seven previous managerial meetings with Brentford. That history supplies context while final squad decisions depend on fitness assessments. Suggested opportunities for younger players or positional changes remain possibilities rather than an announced starting lineup.
