Three days after goalkeeper Alisson headed home a 95th-minute winner against West Bromwich Albion, Liverpool are once again faced with a must-win game against Burnley if they are to keep their dreams of securing a Champions League berth alive. 

At Turf Moor, Liverpool have fielded a lineup with just one change in the midfield from the last match. Georginio Wijnaldum will start in place of Curtis Jones.

The trusted trio of Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane will form the attacking line. 

Meanwhile, Rhys Williams will start alongside Nathaniel Phillips in the centre-back position. 

Sean Dyche’s side will be without their first-choice goalkeeper Nick Pope, who will be replaced by Will Norris.

After a disappointing display against Leeds United, Burnley will be hunting for a positive result and ending the season on a high.
