Brentford will take on Liverpool in the Championship play-offs this weekend, with a place in the Premier League up for grabs. Here's everything you need to know about the game, including how to watch it live.

Brentford vs Liverpool: match preview.

Brentford will be without striker Marcus Forss for the visit of Liverpool in the Carabao Cup fourth round. The Bees confirmed on Tuesday that Forss had sustained a hamstring injury in training and would not be available for the game.

Forss, who has scored seven goals in 16 appearances this season, joins defender Pontus Jansson and midfielder Mathias Jensen on the sidelines.

Jensen missed Saturday's 1-1 draw with Swansea City due to a calf problem, while Jansson has been sidelined since early October with a knee injury.

Brentford boss Thomas Frank is expected to make changes to his side for the cup tie, with goalkeeper David Raya likely to start ahead of Luke Daniels.

Raya has featured in all three of Brentford's previous rounds in the competition, keeping clean sheets against Wycombe Wanderers and Southampton.

Liverpool will be without defender Joel Matip as they travel to face Brentford in the Carabao Cup fourth round.

Matip was withdrawn at half-time during Saturday's 2-1 Premier League win over West Ham United after sustaining an ankle injury.

The Cameroon international underwent scans on Sunday which revealed ligament damage and he is now set for a spell on the sidelines.

Joe Gomez is likely to deputise alongside Virgil van Dijk at centre-back against Brentford, with Fabinho once again filling in at right-back due to Trent Alexander-Arnold's absence.

Midfielder Naby Keita could return to the starting lineup after missing out against West Ham due to a minor muscle issue.

Predictions

Brentford are unbeaten in their last six games across all competitions and will fancy their chances of causing an upset against a Liverpool side who have looked vulnerable defensively at times this season. However, Liverpool have won each of their last four games away from home and should have enough quality to progress to the fifth round of the Carabao Cup.
