Liverpool welcome Brentford to Anfield as they continue their Premier League campaign without a trio of stars.
Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane and Naby Keita are all involved in the Africa Cup of Nations but the show goes on for the remainder of Jurgen Klopp’s squad.
And it’s a critical time to pick up results with Manchester City in relentless form and the gap to the top widening.
Brentford have recorded a mixed bag of results for most of the season, levelling them out in a relatively cosy 13th place.
Thomas Frank will be keen to put up a good fight at Anfield knowing that his men could capitalise on fewer attacking weapons being launched at them while Salah and Co. are missing.

Our prediction: Liverpool v Brentford
Liverpool need to win, it’s as simple as that. The gap to City stands at 11 points, though the Reds do have one game in hand going into the weekend.
If Klopp’s men falter while Salah and Mane are gone, Liverpool’s title chances will have evaporated by their return in February.
The Reds have a few injury issues across the park, but they still have enough quality to topple most sides in the division. It’s time for the fringe players to step up and stake their claim for a regular starting spot.
Our prediction: Liverpool 2-1 Brentford (17/2 at bet365)
