Current streaks

Recent form

Liverpool

Liverpool's recent form has been exceptional, with an impressive six-game winning streak spanning across friendlies and the start of the Premier League season. The team has demonstrated remarkable offensive prowess, scoring 14 goals in these six matches, averaging 2.33 goals per game. Defensively, they've been equally impressive, conceding only 2 goals and keeping 4 clean sheets during this run. The 4-1 victory over Sevilla in a friendly stands out as a particularly high-scoring game, showcasing Liverpool's attacking potential. Their strong start to the Premier League season, with a 2-0 away win against Ipswich Town, has placed them third in the league table after the first round of matches. The team's goal difference of +12 over these six games further emphasizes their dominance, with an even split between matches featuring over and under 2.5 goals.

Brentford

Brentford's recent form shows a mix of resilience and offensive prowess, with their last six games yielding two wins, three draws, and one loss. The team has been involved in some high-scoring encounters, notably the 4-4 draw against VfL Wolfsburg and the 5-2 victory over AFC Wimbledon, contributing to an impressive average of 2.33 goals scored per game. However, their defensive record is a concern, conceding 2 goals per game on average and failing to keep a clean sheet in any of these matches. The team's attacking mentality is evident with both teams scoring in 100% of the games and over 2.5 goals occurring in 67% of the matches. Their Premier League start has been positive with a 2-1 win against Crystal Palace, placing them 6th in the table after the first round of fixtures. This suggests Brentford are maintaining their competitive edge from last season while continuing to be involved in exciting, goal-filled contests.

Recent home/away form

Liverpool

This run includes three friendly matches and two Premier League fixtures, showcasing their strength across different competitions. The Reds have been particularly potent in attack, scoring 13 goals in their last six home games, averaging 2.17 goals per game. Defensively, they've been solid, conceding only 5 goals in this period and keeping 2 clean sheets. The 4-1 victory over Sevilla and the 4-2 win against Tottenham Hotspur stand out as high-scoring encounters, demonstrating Liverpool's ability to dominate opponents at home. Despite a surprising 1-0 loss to Crystal Palace in April, Liverpool's overall home form has been strong, with an even split between games featuring under and over 2.5 goals, and both teams scoring in half of the matches.

Two high-scoring games stand out: a 5-2 victory against AFC Wimbledon and a 5-1 win over Luton Town, both demonstrating Brentford's attacking prowess on the road. Despite their offensive success, the team has been unable to keep a clean sheet in these matches, conceding in all 6 games. The total goals average of 3.5 per game and the fact that both teams scored in 83% of these matches suggest that Brentford's away games tend to be entertaining affairs with plenty of goalmouth action.
