Burnley vs Liverpool prediction
Liverpool are the top scorers in the division this season, and that is without being able to call upon Isak so far. The good news for Burnley is the Swede is unlikely to be firing on all cylinders given his lack of game time.
The bad news for the hosts is the likes of Mohamed Salah, Hugo Ekitike and Cody Gakpo will be keen to get amongst the goals after being kept quiet by Arsenal last time out.
If Burnley can catch the Reds in a post-international break slump then a result is possible, but it’s hard to see past a comfortable win for the reigning Premier League champions.
Head to head (h2h) history and results
