Liverpool has now lost four times in a row in the Premier League with the win over Eintracht Frankfurt in the Champions League appearing to be a one-off rather than a return to form.
After defeats against Crystal Palace, Chelsea and Manchester United in recent weeks, Arne Slot needs to return to the tactical drawing board and find a formula that works again.
Liverpool went 2-0 down to Brentford in the first half in West London through goals from Dango Outtara and Kevin Schade, before Milos Kerkez pulled one back on the stroke of half-time.
After the break, Brentford restored its two-goal advantage through an Igor Tiago penalty. A late, great strike from Mohamed Salah gave the Reds hope, but they could not find another equalizer.
Next up is another game with Crystal Palace, this time in the League Cup. Slot is likely to make changes in that competition, with players like Joe Gomez and Federico Chiesa potentially set to be handed an opportunity.
