Champions Liverpool suffered a fourth successive Premier League defeat as they lost 3-2 at Brentford on Saturday to continue their miserable run of form in the capital.
Arne Slot’s stumbling team fell behind after just five minutes when Dango Ouattara scored after a long throw-in and Kevin Schade made it 2-0 in the 45th minute.
Milos Kerkez replied for the visitors in first-half stoppage time with his first Liverpool goal from Conor Bradley’s cross.
However, Liverpool’s expected second-half siege never quite materialized and Igor Thiago restored Brentford’s two-goal lead from the penalty spot on the hour mark.
Brentford vs Liverpool highlights
Mohamed Salah gave Liverpool hope with a clinical finish in the 89th minute, but it was too late.
It is the first time since 2021 that Liverpool has lost four league games in a row, three of which were in London after defeats at Crystal Palace and Chelsea.
They are now sixth in the table with 15 points, four behind leaders Arsenal, who could increase that margin on Sunday when they host Crystal Palace.
Brentford’s second win in a row moved it to 10th place, two points behind Liverpool.
