On Saturday, October 17, Liverpool faced Brentford in a Premier League match that began at 3pm despite the team having less recovery time after their midweek Champions League game against LASK. Andoni Iraola, Liverpool's head coach, expressed concern about his players' fatigue but acknowledged it as part of the challenge.
Liverpool won the match 2-1 at the Gtech Community Stadium in west London. Brentford took an early lead when Lewis-Potter scored a header from Igor Thiago’s cross. However, Alexander Isak and Bradley Barcola helped Liverpool come back to win with goals near the end of the game. Brentford finished the match with nine players after red cards were issued to Yehor Yarmoliuk and Vitaly Janelt for violent conduct.
