Brentford are unbeaten in 12 matches
Both teams have scored in six of Brentford's last seven matches in all competitions
Bradley Barcola opened his Liverpool account with a hat-trick in midweek
Brentford host Liverpool at the Gtech Community Stadium on Saturday afternoon, with three points potentially lifting the Bees to second in the Premier League table.
Liverpool, meanwhile, could move above the Bees into fourth with a victory of their own as they look to respond to their first league defeat of the season, losing 3-0 to Manchester City at Anfield last Sunday.
The Bees have drawn four of their six league matches this season but have shown they can trouble the division's biggest sides, beating Tottenham and Chelsea 3-0 at home.

Team News
Brentford are likely to be without Josh Dasilva through injury, while Mikkel Damsgaard could return to the matchday squad but is unlikely to start.
Nathan Collins is another potential returnee, although Kevin Schade is a major doubt after suffering a shoulder injury against Aston Villa. The German international's absence would be a significant blow to Keith Andrews.
Liverpool are waiting on the availability of Alexander Isak, Dominik Szoboszlai and Cody Gakpo, who all missed the defeat to Manchester City and the midweek win at LASK. Their participation remains uncertain, but Bradley Barcola should start again after his hat-trick in Europe.
Ryan Gravenberch is suspended following his red card against City.
Need to know
Brentford's unbeaten start to the Premier League season stands at two wins and four draws, their longest run without defeat at the start of a league campaign since 2006-07.
The Bees are also unbeaten in their last eight top-flight matches and their last eight home games, although their tendency to draw has cost them points after taking the lead.
Liverpool have won five of their last seven matches across all competitions and have been strong away from home, winning their last three on their travels and keeping clean sheets in their last two league outings.
The Gtech has regularly delivered goals in this fixture, with 22 scored across the five meetings there.
Prediction
Brentford have made an impressive start to the campaign and their home wins over Tottenham and Chelsea show they should not be underestimated.
However, their four draws in six league games underline how difficult they can find it to turn competitive performances into victories.
Liverpool's injury concerns are significant, but their emphatic European win in midweek provides a timely confidence boost.
Barcola's hat-trick was particularly encouraging, and with the Reds' other attacking options uncertain, the Frenchman should again be central to their threat.
Both teams to score and over 3.5 goals look appealing, while Barcola has the form to add to his Liverpool tally.
