Burnley face their toughest test since returning to the top flight on Sunday when the reigning champions Liverpool visit Turf Moor.
Scott Parker’s side will be looking to build on a competitive, if inconsistent, start to the season. However, they must overcome a dreadful historical record against the Reds, particularly at home, where they have lost the last six encounters in a row.
Scott Parker has a relatively stable squad to choose from. The only major long-term absentee is forward Zeki Amdouni. While defenders Jordan Beyer and Connor Roberts are nearing a return, this game is expected to come just too soon for them.
However, this match could see a debut for new loan signing Florentino Luis. The midfielder arrived from Benfica on deadline day and is in contention to start.
Burnley’s primary concern is their defensive transition to the Premier League. After conceding just 16 goals in the entire Championship season, they have already let in six in three top-flight matches.
As a result, the backline of Kyle Walker, Hjalmar Ekdal, Maxime Esteve, and Quilindschy Hartman faces an immense task. They must find a way to contain one of Europe’s most prolific attacks.
Burnley predicted XI: Dubravka; Walker, Ekdal, Esteve, Hartman; Ugochukwu, Cullen, Florentino; Bruun Larsen, Foster, Anthony
The Premier League fixture will be played at Turf Moor on Sunday, 14 September 2025, with kick-off scheduled for 2 pm BST.
The match will be broadcast live on Sky Sports Main Event, Sky Sports Premier League, and Sky Sports Ultra HDR, with coverage starting at 1 pm BST.
