Liverpool’s first Premier League clash after the international break is set to revolve around the spotlight of Alexander Isak and whether their record-breaking arrival makes his long-awaited debut against Burnley.
Scott Parker’s side earned plaudits last season for their watertight back line, shipping just 16 goals in the Championship. That defensive grit and organisation will be Burnley’s lifeline this campaign as they look to claw their way clear of the relegation scrap.
The Clarets’ start to life back in the top flight has been a mixed bag, thumped 3-0 by Tottenham on opening day, bouncing back with a spirited win over Sunderland, and then cruelly undone in a narrow 3-2 defeat at Old Trafford.
Meanwhile, Liverpool have been busy. The Reds splashed out £125 million to prise Sweden’s star striker Isak from Newcastle United, though their pursuit of Crystal Palace skipper Marc Guehi came up short. With Arne Slot in his second season and a squad that looks reshaped, the champions haven’t been firing on all cylinders but still boast a perfect record, three wins from three, capped by a 1-0 grind over Arsenal at Anfield.

Parker will be praying his internationals return without a scratch, knowing that a fully fit and firing squad is essential if Burnley are to bloody the nose of the league leaders.
The experienced Kyle Walker should be raring to go after being left out of England’s squad, while Lyle Foster and Jaidon Anthony will hope their goals against United keep them in the XI. Zeki Amdouni remains sidelined, but there’s optimism that Jordan Beyer and Connor Roberts could be back in contention.
Liverpool team news
As for Liverpool, Isak joined full training on Wednesday and could feature at Turf Moor, whether from the off or off the bench remains in the balance. Match fitness is still a question mark after he missed Newcastle’s pre-season and their opening fixtures, though a late cameo for Sweden earlier this week helped shake off some rust.
Elsewhere, Jeremie Frimpong may be ready to return after missing the wins over Newcastle and Arsenal, while Ibrahima Konate has been cleared to play despite limping out of the Gunners clash.
