Follow live coverage as Brentford face Liverpool today in the Premier League. Another top-flight season will be covered in full right here with The Independent, as reigning champions Liverpool look to fend off competition from Arsenal, Manchester City and more.

The race for the Champions League places should also be a compelling battle, with a fifth place possible for English teams. Manchester United’s latest rebuild under Ruben Amorim sets expectations high once more after a dismal season last time out.

Meanwhile, it’s Burnley, Leeds United and Sunderland who made it back to the elite after promotion last year and each will have hope they can make it more than a one-year stay. Follow the latest live action from the Premier League below:

Brentford vs Liverpool

Brentford picked up another famous win at home as they defeated reigning champions Liverpool 3-2. The home side took the lead within the first five minutes as Collins glanced a header on for Ouattara to score with a well-taken volley. Liverpool began to put some passes together after that and exerted some pressure, with Wirtz going close. However, Andrews' men would end the half strongly and doubled their advantage as Schade finished after being put clean through by Damsgaard. Kerkez, who had struggled in the first half, gave Liverpool hope with his first goal since joining on the stroke of half-time. Brentford would regain their two goal advantage from the penalty spot following a VAR intervention, as replays showed that Van Dijk had fouled Ouattara on the line after the decision was originally given as a free-kick. Liverpool barely threatened despite being behind but did pull a goal back through a moment of brilliance from Salah. Nevertheless, the Bees held on for a priceless win. In terms of xG, remarkably, both sides generated 2.21. Brentford now travel to Grimsby Town in the League Cup while Liverpool host Crystal Palace in the same competition. That's all from me, thank you and goodbye!

Only Erling Haaland with 11 has scored more Premier League goals than Thiago this season for Brentford. It's been a fantastic start to the campaign for the Brazilian.

Brentford vs Liverpool

Only Jamie Carragher, Martin Skrtel, Phil Babb, and Sami Hyypia have conceded more Premier League penalties for Liverpool than Van Dijk. Van Dijk has conceded four since joining in 2018, while Carragher leads the way with nine.

Brentford vs Liverpool

Kayode has been everywhere this evening and wins a foul for his side after getting in front of Ekitike. That eases some of the pressure on Brentford, though in truth, Slot's men are barely providing much of a threat despite the scoreline.

Brentford vs Liverpool

ANOTHER LIFELINE! Brentford will be kicking themselves as they lose the ball playing out from the back. Szoboszlai clips a pass to Salah, who expertly controls the ball on his left before delivering a stunning effort on his weaker foot which fires into the net off the crossbar. Brentford 3-2 Liverpool.

Kelleher holds onto the ball for too long, leading to Liverpool being awarded a corner but Lewis-Potter heads it away at the front post.

FULL-TIME: BRENTFORD 3-2 LIVERPOOL

Brentford vs Liverpool

It's agonising for Brentford as Liverpool threaten with barely any time left, but Kelleher manages to hold onto the ball following a poorly-hit strike from distance by Szoboszlai. That should be enough for the Bees.

Brentford vs Liverpool

Thiago is booked for allowing another ball onto the pitch. Seconds left in this one now.

Brentford vs Liverpool

Despite Liverpool scoring through Salah, Brentford have enjoyed most of the ball in injury time. Lewis-Potter does well to win a corner for the home side, with the crowd roaring him on.
