An eye-catching Premier League battle awaits at the Gtech Community Stadium on Monday evening as Brentford play host to Liverpool.
Thomas Frank's side claimed a 2-0 London derby win over West Ham United in their final game of 2022, while the Reds came from behind to beat Leicester City 2-1, despite not scoring any of the three goals on the night.
Toney reacted quickest to prod home in the 18th minute and also played Josh Dasilva through to double the Bees' tally just before the break, as West Ham were left to rue some wasteful finishing and the efforts of David Raya in front of their disgruntled supporters.
Ending a year of phenomenal progress in perfect fashion, Thomas Frank's outfit are currently set to enter the New Year 10th in the table following Saturday's fixtures, having been knocked down a place by Fulham after their success versus Southampton.
Scoring six goals in recent meetings with Manchester City, Tottenham Hotspur and West Ham should see Brentford's forward line strike fear into the hearts of any backline, and only runaway leaders Arsenal have come away from the Gtech Community Stadium with all three points this season.
Since going down 3-0 to the Gunners, Brentford have strung together a four-game Premier League unbeaten run on their own patch, beating Brighton & Hove Albion but sharing the spoils in their last three with Spurs, Wolverhampton Wanderers and Chelsea.
