Liverpool's penultimate home game of the season sees the Reds welcome Brentford to Anfield for Saturday evening's Premier League contest.
The Reds remain on the coat-tails of the top four thanks to a 1-0 win over Fulham on Wednesday evening, with Mohamed Salah scoring the game's only goal from the penalty spot.
Jurgen Klopp's side, who have now won five league games on the bounce, are sitting pretty in fifth place as things stand, four points behind Manchester United thanks to the Red Devils' defeat to Brighton & Hove Albion on Thursday.
