Did you know?
Liverpool hope to avoid being the eighth reigning top-flight champions to go four matches without a goal. Leicester City were the last team to do so in 2016/17.
Both Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane have netted four goals in their last four PL appearances for Liverpool against Burnley.
Liverpool will be the fifth different title-holders Burnley have faced in the Premier League, and the Clarets have beaten each of the other four in a season when they were reigning champions. They overcame Manchester United in 2009/10, Manchester City in 2014/15, Leicester City in 2016/17 and Chelsea in 2017/18.
Burnley’s last four PL matches have ended 1-0, with the Clarets losing three of those. A 1-0 defeat is now their most common PL scoreline, happening 28 times.
