Liverpool v Brentford LIVE - Mohamed Salah gives Reds the lead

FT: Liverpool 1-0 Brentford. Liverpool do indeed make it six wins in a row and are now just a point off the top four. It was not their best display, but Salah's milestone goal is the difference. Brentford looked good but did not create enough.

Salah is fouled before Liverpool can take advantage of Raya's position.

Raya comes up, its halfway cleared and Schade then wins another.

Can Brentford finally turn a promising position into a chance?

But when Mbeumo sends the ball into the box, Toney is penalised for wrestling with Tsimikas.

The man who this week signed a new three-year deal replaces Hickey.

Milner makes his presence felt, clattering into Mbeumo.

Hickey gets it all wrong trying to head a crossfield ball and sets up Gakpo, who takes a nice first touch then fires just wide.

Konate gets the better of Toney this time, winning the ball back on halfway.

Tsimiikas and Milner are on for Jones and Robertson for Liverpool. Brentford send on Baptiste and Damsgaard for Janelt and Jensen.

Alexander-Arnold lines up a long-range shot and hits it well, but Raya tips round the post.

The referee deems Alisson wasting time.

Schade has a change to take on Alexander-Arnold one-on-one and cannot get past. All those changes have taken away Brentford's rhythm.

Liverpool bring Henderson on for Jota just as they unsuccessful send a free kick into the Brentford box.

Schade and Dasilva on for Onyeka and an injured Henry. Schade's pace will be a weapon.

Henry has several attempts at foul Gakpo to stop a break. Easy yellow card.

Hickey airkicks at the back post as Brentford continue to look good but not test Alisson.

Frustration for Salah as he is adjudged to have fouled Henry by the Brentford byline.

Nunez, who has had another frustrating afternoon, departs.
