3y ago

Far from their utmost best this season, Burnley haven’t been entirely convincing. In fact, they were, at a point, embroiled in a relegation dog-fight with a couple of lowly teams. Having now escaped the drop, the Clarets will be playing for nothing but pride in this contest.

Meanwhile, Liverpool are facing a race against time to sneak into the top-four mix. They currently sit in fifth-place, only a point adrift of the last Champions League slot. Expect a five-star showing from the Reds as they hope to bag some much-needed three points.

Burnley vs Liverpool Team News

After pulling off a magnificent top-half finish last term, Burnley were tagged the “surprise packages” of the Premier League. In fact, some pundits backed them to go on to build on the successes of the campaign, to perhaps, secure continental qualification this term.

However, Burnley have failed to live up to the billing this season, and are languishing in the bottom-half of the standings. Placed 15^th on the standings, Sean Dyche’s men have notched up a paltry 39 points from 36 matches.

To highlight their struggles, these ones have suffered defeat a staggering 17 times this term – the fourth-worst record in the division. For all these flounders, the club supporters will be relieved to have seen their team escape relegation, at the very least.

Given they have already secured their top-flight status for another year, Burnley have absolutely nothing to play for in this fixture. Dyche will probably setup his players to attempt frustrating this Liverpool side, who are in the running for a top-four finish.

It appears the race for Champions League qualification in the Premier League will go right down to the wire. To stand a chance of clinching a top-four place, Liverpool must come out victorious in each of their remaining two matches.

In fact, their qualification fate isn’t entirely in their own hands, as they will need one of the teams above them to drop points, to climb up the ladder. Last time out, the Reds scored a late historic goal to bag maximum points against already-relegated West Brom.

Just when it appeared both teams would have to settle for a share of the spoils, goalie Alisson came up clutch for the Kop, scoring an unbelievable header to keep his side’s top-four hopes alive. With another game coming up, Klopp’s men need another win in the bag.

Injured or Suspended Players

Burnley: No injuries or suspensions.
Liverpool: Virgil van Dijk, Joe Gomez and Joel Matip.

Burnley vs Liverpool Predictions

These are the kind of fixtures Liverpool have struggled to win this season. While the Reds have been impressive against the league’s top-guns, they tend to buckle when tackling lowly sides. And Burnley can be tagged a ‘lowly side’ this term.

This sets us up for a potentially exciting game at Turf Moor. That said, Burnley’s home form is nothing to write home about, falling to consecutive defeats lately. Here, we expect the visitors to carry the day, but not without conceding one or two goals.
