Liverpool can close the gap to within a point of the Champions League places with a win over Brentford on Saturday evening.
Jurgen Klopp's side recorded their fifth victory in a row on Wednesday as they scraped past Fulham at Anfield, with Mohamed Salah scoring the decisive goal. It was a result that moved to them four points behind fourth-place Manchester United in the race for the top-four.
The Red Devils had the chance to extend that gap but failed to capitalise as they were beaten 1-0 at Brighton on Thursday to leave the top four race wide open. However, Liverpool's next game won't be a walkover by any stretch. Thomas Frank's Brentford have done well this season and won the reverse fixture 3-1.
