The Premier League continues as Liverpool face off against Brentford. Liverpool's entire team is worth 861 million euros, Brentford's entire team is worth 212 million euros, and there is indeed a huge gap between the two sides in terms of lineup configuration. After 90 minutes of play, Liverpool kept a clean sheet for Brentford 3-0, winning the game while Liverpool also rose to 2nd place in the Premier League!
Anyone who watched the game would know that Liverpool had the initiative on the pitch from the very beginning of the game, with all the stats overwhelmingly dominant. Seeing is believing, and then I will take you to look at the specific data of both sides:
Shots on goal: Liverpool 27-6 Brentford
Number of shots on target: Liverpool 13-1 Brentford
Passes: Liverpool 694-335 Brentford
Number of corners: Liverpool 9-0 Brentford
Number of clearances: Liverpool 5-32 Brentford
Possession: Liverpool 68.3%-31.7% Brentford
As can be seen from both sides, Liverpool have shown great offensive aggressiveness, with seven more shots on target (13) than Brentford 's (6) and not giving Brentford a single corner. As for why Liverpool can achieve an overwhelming advantage, there are actually two reasons.
On the one hand, there is a big gap in the strength of the two sides, on the other hand, Liverpool urgently need a victory to boost morale. In the first three rounds of the Premier League, Liverpool only achieved a record of 2 draws and 1 loss, which is indeed a bit unsatisfactory. When it came to the weaker Brentford, Liverpool naturally did not want to miss out on any more opportunities, and finally won a big victory.
After winning the game, Liverpool's record this season reached 13 wins, 6 draws and 2 losses (with 45 points), successfully rising to 2nd place in the Premier League. Manchester City is currently in the premier league with a record of 18 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses (56 points), and in the case of one less round, Liverpool is 11 points behind Manchester City at the top of the table, which also makes fans more look forward to the next performance of both sides.
It is worth mentioning that when Liverpool beat Brentford 3-0, Liverpool have a statistic to lead the Premier League this season. According to statistics, this is the ninth time this season that Liverpool has won with a lead of at least 3 goals, while Manchester City has only had 7 times this season and Chelsea has 6 times, which also makes fans feel Liverpool's ferocious attacking firepower.
Meanwhile, Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has also reached a new milestone. With the addition of Brentford, Klopp has played against 30 teams in the Premier League as manager and has successfully defeated opponents. At the same time that Liverpool won, manager Klopp also unlocked new achievements, which is indeed a double happiness for Liverpool!
According to the official Premier League news, Liverpool player Alexander-Arnold was voted the best player of the game. He assisted Fabinho in the first half to give Liverpool a lead. In addition, Arnold's pass success rate was as high as 68.4%, and he contributed 3 key passes and 1 clearance. He also won the ball in 3 ground confrontations, and such a good performance really deserves the praise of the fans!
Finally, congratulations again to Liverpool for winning the game, if they can continue to maintain such a hot state, then I believe Liverpool will bring more surprises to the fans. As for how Liverpool will perform next, let's wait and see!
