Liverpool are aiming to open up a seven-point gap at the Premier League’s summit but it’s currently not going to plan.
Saturday’s trip to Brentford has seen Arne Slot’s side knocking on the door with a dominant display which failed to produce a first-half opener for the visitors.
In total, the Reds racked up 19 attempts on Mark Flekken’s goal but despite only five hitting the target, their bombardment has hit a high bar in this season’s top flight.
Only West Ham’s 20 efforts in their 3-1 defeat to Leicester City last month ranked higher for any opening 45 minutes in the current campaign.
-Can the league leaders finally deliver a breakthrough?
