Defending Premier League champions Liverpool travel to Turf Moor on Sunday to face newly-promoted Burnley. Arne Slot’s side are the only team with a perfect record so far this season. On the other hand, Burnley have made a spirited start to life in the top flight with one win and two losses.
August proved a dream month for Liverpool as they swept aside all three of their opponents, including title challengers Arsenal. The Reds will now aim to make it four wins from four for just the third time in Premier League history, having done so in 2018-19 and 2019-20.

Liverpool have strengthened an already formidable attack with the £125m signing of Alexander Isak. With Atletico Madrid and Everton awaiting next week, this fixture against Burnley should be their most straightforward challenge. History is also firmly in Liverpool’s favour. The Reds have won eight of their last nine visits to Turf Moor.

Burnley have conceded six goals in their opening three matches after shipping just 16 in 46 Championship games last season. The Clarets remain unbeaten in 25 home league matches, but that run faces its biggest test yet on Sunday. Liverpool will look to extend their perfect start, while Burnley must shore up their defence to have any hope of an upset.

Under 3.5 Goals @ -175 as per BetMGM
Burnley have shown resilience at Turf Moor with a 2-0 win over Sunderland and a hard-fought 2-1 victory over Derby. Despite recent defensive lapses away to Spurs and Manchester United, Burnley will be desperate to tighten up against the reigning champions. Given Burnley’s home strength and their urgent need to shore up the defence, this contest is more likely to stay below the 3.5-goal mark.
Ekitike has started life at Liverpool brightly in the league. Coming off a prolific season with Eintracht Frankfurt, where he scored 22 times, the forward looks sharp and confident in front of goal. His rich form makes him a strong pick to get on the scoresheet again at Turf Moor.
