Burnley with five at the back and Forest under Postecoglou with five up front! Killeavy, Nottingham Burnley 0-0 Liverpool Good covering by Virgil van Dijk as he gets across to block off Lyle Foster's run into the box on the left. He then wins himself a free-kick, too, much to Burnley's frustration. Burnley 0-0 Liverpool Leon Osman Former Everton and England midfielder on BBC Radio 5 Live Burnley defending stubbornly. They are trying to frustrate this Liverpool team. Burnley look like they have got opportunities if they can make the first pass on the counter-attack. Burnley 0-0 Liverpool Scott Parker is very happy with the endeavour of his striker Lyle Foster, coming to the edge of the pitch to slap him with a big high five after some bustling play to disrupt Liverpool. Burnley 0-0 Liverpool Danny Murphy BBC Match of the Day pundit "This game has been a bit flat so far. It's often the way when you come back from an international break. " You can hear more from Murphy on MOTD at 22: 30 BST on BBC One and the BBC Sport website and app. Burnley 0-0 Liverpool Leon Osman Former Everton and England midfielder on BBC Radio 5 Live The pattern of play has not changed since we started the game - Liverpool with comfortable possession. Liverpool are not moving the ball quick enough. Burnley want Liverpool's centre-halves to step into uncomfortable positions.

In a financially imbalanced league you try to work to your strengths to get results you can. Long throws from Brentford worked out OK for them. Pedro, Derbyshire Re. Dave at 14: 19 - How dare Burnley not play into Liverpool's hands. Chris Burnley 0-0 Liverpool Liverpool keep up the pressure with Cody Gakpo looking the most eager to attempt shots on goal - trying his best to keep his place in the side, perhaps? He attempts a shot on the edge of the box but it is blocked. Burnley 0-0 Liverpool A nice move by Liverpool ends with Milos Kerkez battling for the ball inside the box. He goes down very easily under some pressure from Josh Laurent and is booked for simulation. Burnley 0-0 Liverpool Virgil van Dijk knocks the ball towards the box, it is a high ball and Hugo Ekitike attempts to bring it down but can't control it. Burnley 0-0 Liverpool Alexis Mac Allister is OK to continue so on we go in what has been a bit of a scrappy game so far.

Why not play with two keepers, and put your striker on the bench. Dave, Cardiff Burnley 0-0 Liverpool Not sure Alexis Mac Allister will quite see it that way because he is still needing treatment on his ankle. Burnley 0-0 Liverpool Leon Osman Former Everton and England midfielder on BBC Radio 5 Live Lesley Ugochukwu was off his feet, but he did win the ball. Straight away Alexis Mac Allister was indicating contact was made and he was eager to let the referee know. It did look like a good old school challenge. Burnley 0-0 Liverpool Some boos from the home fans as Lesley Ugochukw is booked for a sliding in heavily on Alexis Mac Allister. VAR checks if the yellow needs to be upgraded, but decide the on-field decision is correct. Burnley 0-0 Liverpool Burnley certainly do look organised. When Liverpool have the ball they sit in, leaving little space through the middle and when they get possession they have broken quickly.

Matt, Burnley Burnley 0-0 Liverpool Another corner for Liverpool, this one closer to causing problems as Cody Gakpo whips it in towards the goal and Ibrahima Konate rises to meet it, but heads off target. Burnley 0-0 Liverpool Liverpool then win the game's first corner but Milos Kerkez can't get the required direction on his header. Burnley 0-0 Liverpool Leon Osman Former Everton and England midfielder on BBC Radio 5 Live Really good play from Burnley. The amount of players they got forward quickly there. .. Burnley pounced on it and they had four players in attack. A shot from Jaidon Anthony just inside the D, but it wasn't troubling Alisson.

Audio Burnley v Liverpool (14/09/2025) BBC Radio Merseyside Listen live Premier League All competitions All competitions All competitions Burnley have lost 14 of their 18 Premier League matches against Liverpool (W2 D2), including each of their last five in a row since a 1-0 win at Anfield in January 2021. Liverpool have won eight of their nine away Premier League matches at Turf Moor against Burnley (L1), winning the last six in a row. The Reds have won seven away top-flight games in a row against three teams previously: West Brom (8 between 1983 and 2009), Norwich (8 between 1995 and 2021) and Crystal Palace (7 between 2016 and 2022). Liverpool are looking to win their opening four Premier League matches in a season for a third time, also doing so in 2018-19 (finished 2nd) and 2019-20 (won the title). It would be the third time in a row the reigning top-flight champions have won their first four games (also Man City in 2023-24 and 2024-25), the first time ever in top-flight history that’s happened. Burnley have already shipped 37. 5% of their total league goals from 2024-25 (16) in the Premier League this season (6). If they concede two in this game, it’d be the joint earliest in Football League history a side had already conceded 50% or more of their goal tally from the previous campaign, with Portsmouth in 1987-88 shipping 15 goals in four games, 54% of their previous season’s tally (28). Burnley won four of their first seven Premier League matches against the reigning champions (D1 L2) but they’ve since lost 10 of their last 11, conceding 30 goals in those 10 defeats. The exception in this run was a 1-0 away win at Liverpool in January 2021. Liverpool have scored in 37 consecutive Premier League matches, their longest run in top-flight history. Only Tottenham (39 in a row, March 2023 – March 2024) and Arsenal (55, May 2001 – November 2002) have scored in more Premier League matches in a row. Burnley have scored with none of their 15 attempts in the first halves of Premier League matches this season, but in the second half of games they’ve netted with four out of 12 shots, the best conversion rate after the break of any side (33%). This will be Burnley manager Scott Parker’s first Premier League match against Liverpool since losing 9-0 with Bournemouth back in August 2022. He has beaten the Reds before however, a 1-0 win in March 2021, and could become the second manager to beat both Jürgen Klopp and Arne Slot in the Premier League, along with Marco Silva. Liverpool’s Florian Wirtz has made the most off-ball runs in the Premier League this season (92), while he’s also made the most runs into the attacking third (42) and most runs ahead of the ball (26). Alexander Isak is set to make his Liverpool debut in this match – between 2022-23 and 2024-25, only two players scored more Premier League goals than he did (54). Two players (Hugo Ekitiké and Rio Ngumoha) have scored on their debuts this season, with 1946-47 the last time more Reds player scored on their top-flight debuts in one campaign (Len Carney, Billy Liddell, Albert Stubbins, Cyril Done, William Watkinson).
