Liverpool v Burnley: Team news, predicted teams and TV details as Clarets look to cause upset

The Clarets travel to Anfield off the back of a dramatic 2-2 draw against Fulham, where they fought their way back from two goals down to salvage a late point.

It leaves them 19th in the table and seven points adrift of safety, a gap which could well increase with Arsenal to come after their game against Jurgen Klopp’s men.

As for the Reds, they suffered only their second league defeat of the season last weekend when they fell to a 3-1 loss to the Gunners at the Emirates.

Liverpool still remain top though, leading Manchester City by two points albeit having played a game more.
