In a highly anticipated Premier League match, Liverpool suffered a rather disheartening 1-3 defeat when they traveled to Brentford at dawn on Tuesday (3). However, the loss to Brentford wasn't really a surprise. After all, Brentford has emerged as the "Giant Killer" this season. Apart from a defeat against table-topping Arsenal, they have also beaten Manchester City, Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea, so Liverpool are not alone in this battle.
Brentford have won 4, drawn 4 and lost 1 of their 9 home games in the EPL this season, with their only defeat coming to Arsenal. They've done even better against tough opponents, with 3 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss against the Big 6 this season, including a 4-0 home win over Manchester United, a 0-0 draw against Chelsea, a 2-2 draw against Tottenham Hotspur, and even a 2-1 win against Manchester City as visitors. This 3-1 victory over Liverpool was no surprise.
Binford have been in excellent form recently, with 3 wins and 1 draw in their last 4 league games. Speaking after the game, leader Frank said: "The players have been very impressive. We beat Manchester City on the road and then drew with Tottenham, but then we won against Westham and Liverpool, which was a very solid performance. Liverpool are one of the best teams in the world and you have to play at 200% to beat them. I hope the fans enjoy the win."
