Burnley Preview – Clarets’ winless run to go on?
Burnley have picked up just one victory from their opening 20 Premier League matches, drawing 11 and losing eight of the other 19. They find themselves propping up the league table with just 14 points to their name. Only Norwich City have scorer fewer goals, too.
Despite their struggles for wins, the Clarets have only lost nine times in the league this term, with only Crystal Palace losing fewer in the bottom half. However, just Brighton & Hove Albion have drawn more.
Burnley have drawn three in a row in the league. Last time out, Sean Dyche’s boys held Ralf Rangnick’s Manchester United to a 1-1 draw at Turf Moor. Can they do the same to Liverpool at the weekend?
Liverpool Preview – Reds to ease to victory in Lancashire?
Since letting a two-goal lead slip to draw 2-2 with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge in early January, Liverpool have won three on the bounce in the Premier League. They have seen off Brentford, Crystal Palace and Leicester City.
The Reds are currently in second spot in the Premier League table, nine points behind leaders Man City. However, Jurgen Klopp’s men have a game in hand and still have to play Pep Guardiola’s side. The Reds look nailed on for a UEFA Champions League position, as they are currently 12 points clear of fifth-place Arsenal.
