Liverpool Team News & Preview
Liverpool host Burnley in the Premier League this weekend and the Reds will be hoping to improve their performance against the weaker teams with a win here.
Jurgen Klopp’s men were beaten 2-0 by Burnley at the start of the season and Liverpool will look to avenge that. The home side are heading into this game on the back of a 3-1 win over Arsenal and they will be full of confidence right now.
Liverpool have had a disastrous start to 2017 and they have only won three of 13 matches this year. Considering their form against the weaker teams, this could be a tricky outing for the Reds.
The home side will be without Sturridge, Ejaria, Ings and Henderson for this game. Roberto Firmino has picked up a knock in training and will be assessed closer to kick-off.
Predicted Liverpool Starting Lineup (4-3-3): Mignolet; Clyne, Matip, Klavan, Milner; Emre Can, Wijnaldum, Lallana; Coutinho, Origi, Mane
