Jurgen Klopp is welcoming the nine-day break Liverpool now have ahead of a trip to Leicester later this month, saying his players are "completely knackered".
The Reds came through their third game in less than a week on Saturday evening with a 1-0 win against Brentford as they made it six successive victories and eight unbeaten since the goalless draw with Chelsea over a month ago.
Mohamed Salah's first-half goal was enough to secure a third straight home triumph and the Reds now trail fourth-place Manchester United by just a point in the Premier League ahead of their own trip to West Ham United on Sunday.
