Will Liverpool remain undefeated?

Liverpool FC has only managed to start a Premier League season with four wins twice in its history. If the tip on the Reds proves true again on Sunday afternoon in the Burnley vs. Liverpool match, it would be another twelve-point start.

Only twice in its history has Liverpool FC managed to start a Premier League season with four wins. If the Reds’ prediction comes true again on Sunday afternoon in the Burnley vs. Liverpool match, they will add another twelve-point start.

It is also clear that both clubs have fundamentally different aspirations and goals. While last year’s champions naturally want to defend their title and, after their victory over Arsenal before the international break, are considered the hottest contenders for the title on the island, Parker’s team has been focused on staying in the league from the start.

The former founding member of the Football League has already picked up three points after three matchdays. Before the international break, they suffered an unfortunate last-minute defeat at Manchester United. The decisive goal was scored in the seventh minute of stoppage time.

However, the Wine Reds have celebrated their only three points so far at home. Fellow promoted side Sunderland were defeated 2-0 on the second matchday. However, with six goals conceded in three games, there is not much sign of the brutal defensive strength that brought record-breaking statistics in the previous Championship season. A Burnley vs. Liverpool prediction in favor of the underdog should therefore be avoided.

Although LFC were unable to perform at their best at times in the first three matchdays, it was clear that their powerful offense – also due to the individual quality of the players – can cause a sensation at any time. In my opinion, this will not change against what is probably their weakest opponent to date.

So there are plenty of attractive Burnley vs. Liverpool odds to put on your betting slip. For example, Betano is offering 4.10 for the favorites to lead at halftime by at least two goals. A start-to-finish victory in the form of a double result is tempting at Winamax with a top price of 1.84.

Burnley – Liverpool Head-to-head record

There have been 18 Premier League matches between these clubs. Liverpool have won 14 times. There have been two draws and two Burnley wins. The Reds have won the last five head-to-head matches, winning eight of their nine away games at Turf Moor. LFC have also won six games in a row here.

Incidentally, Liverpool have been ahead at half-time in seven of the last nine meetings. In the current season, the Slot XI have also not conceded a goal before the break. Burnley, meanwhile, have not scored in the first 45 minutes.

Burnley – Liverpool Tip

For Scott Parker, Sunday afternoon’s match against Liverpool is also a battle against his demons. The former professional last sat on the bench against the Reds in 2022. At the time, he was in charge of AFC Bournemouth, who suffered a 9-0 defeat. Nevertheless, Parker could now become only the second Premier League coach after Marco Silva to defeat Arne Slot and Jürgen Klopp. The only thing missing is a little imagination, because I think it’s rather unlikely that Burnley, as a relegation candidate, will trip up the reigning champions.

Instead, I expect a confident performance from the Reds, who have collected nine points so far, have a strong record at Turf Moor and, of course, are in a different league in terms of quality. I’m therefore going to bet on LFC leading at half-time and ultimately winning the game as expected.
