Brentford vs Liverpool. Prediction and Betting Tips for 2022-23 English Premier League (January 2, 2022).

On Friday, Brentford set a new club record: they went five games unbeaten in the premier League. Last time the Bees had such a good run in the elite was way back in 1939. Right after the victory over West Ham (2:0), the club signed a new contract with Thomas Frank. 

This was also the fourth straight game when the Bees scored two goals. Considering the opponent's quality and Ivan Toney's injury, this can be definitely called a fantastic achievement. Brentford also won the last three games played on New Year's Day. 

Toney, Hickey, Baptiste, Onyeka, Strakosha, and Ajer will not be able to help their teammated against Liverpool. 

Liverpool conceded an early goal to Leicester City, but managed to win with a score of 2:1. All three goals were delivered by the Foxes though - Wout Faes scored two own goals in seven minutes. Not without luck, but the Reds won their fourth straight game in the Premier League.

They haven't lost to Brentford in nine previous meetings, but the first month of the year has always been tough for Liverpool - the team won only 23 out of 49 games played in January. Currently, Jurgen Klopp's men are in 6th place in the Premier League standings with 28 points from eight victories and four draws. The offensive record stands at 33 goals in 16 games. 

Robertson, Milner, Firmino, Elliott, Jones, Diogo Jota, Arthur, and Diaz are all sidelined through injuries.
