Liverpool host Burnley at Anfield (Liverpool) in the 2nd round of the 2021/22 Premier League season and the match kicks off at 12.30 pm (UK) on Saturday, August 21. Read our reasons for Liverpool vs Burnley prediction and betting tips.
LIVERPOOL VS BURNLEY: STATS & FACTS
Liverpool lost 1-0 at home against Burnley last season, ending their 68-match unbeaten league run at Anfield. The Clarets though last won consecutive away league matches against Liverpool in their first two attempts over a century ago. Burnley have suffered 10 defeats in 14 top-flight matches against Liverpool (W2, D2), and have won their first away league game in just two of the last 14 seasons (D3, L9). Players to keep an eye on are Liverpool forwards Roberto Firmino, who has been directly involved in six goals in his last six appearances against Burnley (5 goals, 1 assist), and Mohamed Salah, who has scored 98 goals in his 159 PL games - only Alan Shearer (124), Harry Kane (141), Sergio Agüero (147) and Thierry Henry (160) have scored more in their first 160 league games.
LIVERPOOL VS BURNLEY: PRE-MATCH TALK
A corresponding fixture last season sparked a bizarre sequence in which Liverpool lost six home league games in a row for the first time in their history. However, Liverpool finished the season like a train to claim third place and, on the evidence of the 3-0 win at Norwich City on Saturday, they look to be approaching their best again. The question remains can they return to the form that saw them win the league at a canter and push Man City all the way to the final day a season before. This will be clear in the coming months, but the squad can silence their critics by embarking on a winning run, and with just one of the ‘big six’ to face in their first six league games, Jurgen Klopp will want points on the board early.
On the other hand, Burnley have a huge task on their hands, not just in trying to win this match but in trying to beat relegation and safeguard their position in the league for another year. They slipped to defeat last weekend, opening with a loss at home to Brighton, a team the fans would have hoped them to beat or, at least, get at least a point. Tarkowski scored inside 120 seconds but a quickfire double from Maupay and Mac Allister saw Brighton snatch the win away. Against Liverpool though, Sean Dyche’s men have scored four goals on their past three trips to Anfield and will fancy their chances to get on the scoresheet again, even if a second successive victory may be beyond them.
LIVERPOOL VS BURNLEY: TEAM NEWS
Anfield will be packed and intimidating for Burnley on Saturday, whose win last season was their first at Anfield since 1974, while Liverpool will have Virgil van Dijk and Joel Matip back in central defence. Andy Robertson is out for the time being, but Kostas Tsimikas has proved against Norwich in his first-ever Premier League start that he can deputise for the Scot quite well. Apart from him and Curtis Jones, Klopp should have a full squad at his disposal.
As for Burnley, both Kevin Long and Dale Stephens were out of contention through injuries for the Brighton visit, but could eventually make it to the bench if they are fit enough to return to the squad on Saturday. Also, Matej Vydra, who missed out on the starting lineup against Brighton on Saturday as Jay Rodriguez was the preferred option to start, could find his way into starting XI and, last but not least, Nathan Collins will be looking to make his debut following his £12million summer move from Stoke.

Liverpool looked good last week but we’ll know more about just how good they are after this match. The Reds are good enough to win this and if they play anywhere near their capacity they could get a few goals too. Burnley scored last week and can do it again here but know they must tighten their defence if they are to have any chance of getting even a point.
