Liverpool return from the international break with a trip to Turf Moor, a venue that’s often been kind to them, as they square off with Burnley in Premier League action.
The Reds arrive with even more firepower than before, splashing £125 million to bring in Alexander Isak and adding fresh teeth to an already dangerous attack.
With bigger battles looming against Atletico Madrid and Everton next week, this clash with Burnley looks like the calm before the storm. Recent history tilts heavily in Liverpool’s direction, too, with victories in eight of their last nine visits to the Clarets’ backyard.
Burnley, on the other hand, have had a rude awakening to top-flight life. After conceding just 16 goals across 46 matches in their Championship title run, they’ve already coughed up six in their first three Premier League games.
Still, Turf Moor has been a fortress in recent times — Burnley are unbeaten in their last 25 league outings at home. That streak, however, now stares down its toughest challenge yet.
With Liverpool eyeing a flawless start and Burnley desperate to tighten the screws at the back, Sunday’s contest has all the makings of a clash between a roaring juggernaut and an underdog hoping to punch above its weight.

Burnley vs. Liverpool lineups, team news
Scott Parker played a back four throughout last season but the Englishman switched to a back three in pre-season for a bit, and they also played it against Tottenham and, with the experience of Kyle Walker, will likely do so again.
The Clarets could hand a debut to Florentino Luis in midfield, perhaps partnering captain Josh Cullen and former Manchester United man Hannibal Mejbri.
Burnley predicted starting XI (4-3-3, right to left): Dubravka (GK) — Walker, Ekdal, Esteve, Hartman — Ugochukwu, Cullen, Florentino — Bruun Larsen, Foster, Anthony.
