Brentford keep drawing, and keep not losing

Keith Andrews has a side nobody can beat and plenty can hold. The four draws in that run were all Premier League games: 2-2 away to Aston Villa 7 days before this match, 2-2 away to Bournemouth, 1-1 at home to Sunderland and 1-1 away to Leeds United.

The two wins were emphatic and then functional. Brentford beat Chelsea 3-0 at home 29 days before this fixture, and won 2-1 away to Reading in the EFL Cup.

In those 6: won 2, drew 4, lost 0; 10 points; scored 11, conceded 7. That is a team scoring freely enough and leaking just enough to turn wins into draws.

Does the Liverpool FC record stand up better?

On points, yes. In their last 6, Liverpool FC won 4, drew 1, lost 1 for 13 points, scored 8 and conceded 5.

The shape of it matters more than the total. Liverpool FC won 1-0 away to Bournemouth, 2-0 away to Ipswich Town and 2-1 at home to Atlético Madrid in the UEFA Champions League, drew 0-0 at home to Fulham, and beat Tottenham Hotspur 3-1 in the EFL Cup. Narrow, controlled, low-scoring.

Then Manchester City came to Anfield 6 days before this match and won 3-0. It was the only defeat of the six and the only time Liverpool FC conceded more than once.

The last Brentford vs Liverpool FC meeting

Liverpool FC 1-1 Brentford at Anfield, 146 days before this fixture, on 24 May 2026. Brentford took a point out of the ground where Liverpool FC have since drawn blanks against Fulham and been taken apart by Manchester City.

Team news

Brentford

Keith Andrews confirmed Kevin Schade picked up a shoulder injury during the 2-2 draw at Aston Villa and said he was not sure how the forward was, while Jannik Schuster was withdrawn at half-time after an ankle knock sustained in training, per Brentford FC. Aaron Hickey replaced Schuster at centre-back.

Liverpool FC

Andoni Iraola said Dominik Szoboszlai returned from international duty with tightness and an overload, and that he was pessimistic about Szoboszlai, Alexander Isak and Cody Gakpo being available in midweek, with four games in 10 days to manage, as reported by Sports Mole.

Longer-term, Conor Bradley has been out with a knee problem since January, Hugo Ekitike with an Achilles injury, Giovanni Leoni with an ACL rupture, and Federico Chiesa with a muscular issue, according to Last Word on Sports.

Brentford vs Liverpool FC prediction

Our prediction for Brentford vs Liverpool FC in the Premier League on Saturday, 17 October 2026 is a 1-1 draw at the Gtech Community Stadium. Brentford have not lost in six and have found a way to level four of them, which is exactly the kind of afternoon a depleted Liverpool FC attack struggles to break open.

Liverpool FC still have the better record of the two, and their away wins at Bournemouth and Ipswich Town show they can win ugly. But they drew 1-1 with this Brentford side in May and have just been beaten at home by three goals.

Our prediction: Brentford 1-1 Liverpool FC
