😱 Shock stat emerges as Liverpool stumble against Burnley | OneFootball

Premier League holders Liverpool look destined to pass the baton come the end of the 2025/26 season as Arne Slot's Reds once again slump to another disappointing result.

Despite German wunderkind Florian Wirtz beginning to find his footing on Merseyside, the champions were unable to get a result over the line, falling prey to a Marcus Edwards equaliser and a subsequent 1-1 draw against Burnley on their home patch.

It's been a season to forget for Slot's men after experiencing pure elation on their way to league honours in 2024/25, with the Dutch tactician unable to repeat heroics as they close out matchday 22 a whopping 13 points off table-toppers Arsenal, who are still to play.

With their draw against Scott Parker's Clarets, it's the first time since the 1980/81 campaign that Liverpool have failed to beat any of the three promoted sides at Anfield in the league.

With a 45-year low now highlighting the season, few, if any, remain hopeful for much more than guaranteeing a top-four place.
