LIVERPOOL face a crucial game at home to Brentford as they look to reignite their title pursuit.
Jurgen Klopp’s men sit in third place, fourteen points behind leaders Manchester City with two games in hand.
Last time they played in the Premier League, the Reds threw away a two-goal lead against second placed Chelsea to draw 2-2 at Stamford Bridge.
Opponents Brentford are firmly in mid-table after moving away from the relegation mire in the past month.
However, they will be looking for a much better performance than they managed during Tuesday’s 4-1 defeat at Southampton.
