Now, Eimer has broken down Liverpool vs. Brentford from every angle and identified his picks and Premier League predictions. You can head to SportsLine now to see Eimer's picks. Here are the betting lines and trends for Brentford vs. Liverpool:
The Reds enter Sunday's game in excellent form. In five preseason friendlies, they came away with four wins, including victories over Arsenal and Manchester United, and one draw. That strong play carried over to the season opener in which they dominated the second half at Ipswich Town to win 2-0. Liverpool have outscored their last six opponents, 10-2.
In addition, the Reds have dominated the head-to-head series against Brentford. In six meetings between the teams, Liverpool have won four times and drawn once. That includes a 4-1 win in Brentford in February. The Reds have outscored the Bees 12-4 over those six matches. See which team to pick here.
The Bees have a proven goal scorer in Yoane Wissa. The 27-year-old midfielder led the team and ranked 15th in the Premier League last season in goals (12). In Brentford's 2-1 win on Sunday over Crystal Palace, Wissa knocked home a rebound to break a 1-1 tie in the second half.
Wissa and the Bees will face a Liverpool side that lacks a world class defensive midfielder. The Reds attempted to fill that hole this summer by attempting to sign midfielder Martín Zubimendi but were eventually rejected. Since then, the club has been linked to other possibilities, but nothing concrete has emerged yet. See which team to pick here.
Eimer has broken down Brentford vs. Liverpool from every possible angle. He is leaning Over 3.5 goals, and he has two other best bets, including one that would return more than +300, and a full breakdown of this match. He's sharing his Premier League picks and analysis only at SportsLine.
