Liverpool Predicted Lineup vs Brentford<\/h2>\n

How Liverpool Have Lined-up Recently<\/h3>\n

Liverpool have lined up with a 4-2-3-1 under Arne Slot, providing a lot of stability with a double pivot.<\/p>\n

Alisson Becker unsurprisingly started in goal against Ipswich Town. Andy Robertson started at left-back despite playing just 61 minutes in pre-season, whilst Trent Alexander-Arnold was at right-back. Jarell Quansah paired Virgil van Dijk at centre-back, though was hooked at half-time.<\/p>\n

Ryan Gravenberch joined Alexis Mac Allister in the holding midfield with Liverpool yet to sign a number six. Dominik Szoboszlai played in a slightly more advanced role.<\/p>\n

Luis Diaz and Mohamed Salah were the wingers, with Diogo Jota starting up front over Darwin Nunez.<\/p>\n

Liverpool\u2019s Recent Form and Tactics<\/h3>\n

Liverpool opened their Premier League season convincingly, with a 2-0 win away at Ipswich Town. They created six big chances, resulting in a healthy expected goals of 2.65. However, much like last season, they struggled with being clinical and saw some big opportunities wasted.<\/p>\n

It was also a pretty slow start, with neither side doing much in the first-half. The Reds were much more dangerous and dominant in the second 45 minutes, during which they netted their two goals.<\/p>\n

Slot’s double-pivot worked to effect, preventing Ipswich from causing a large threat to Alisson. The only real dangerous attack that they had was a fast break in the 20th minute that Alexander-Arnold defended very well.<\/p>\n

When asked, prior to the Ipswich match, whether he has a fully fit squad, Slot replied: “Yes we have”. <\/a>The main potential change would be starting Konate over Quansah, given their performances.<\/p>\n

Joe Gomez was absent from the season opener due to transfer speculation and could be absent again.<\/p>\n
