Jürgen Klopp will put his admiration for Brentford to one side on Saturday as he plots a route to victory against an ‘interesting’ opponent.
The Bees are back in the top flight for the first time since 1947 and have quickly made an impact on the Premier League, collecting eight points from their opening five matches.
Klopp has tracked the progress of Thomas Frank’s team, who were promoted from the Championship via the play-offs last season, with intrigue and appreciation.
Those sentiments are now on hold, however, as the Reds prepare for the challenge of claiming a win at Brentford Community Stadium tomorrow teatime.
