Team news
Jeremie Frimpong, who missed Liverpool's wins over Newcastle and Arsenal prior to the international break due to a muscle problem, is expected to be available having trained at the AXA Training Center last week.
Curtis Jones is set to be Liverpool's only absentee. Arne Slot said in a press conference on Friday: “Curtis Jones, of course, I don’t know if you knew, but he got injured in the last game, so he will not be available for the game against Burnley. The rest of them I think all came back [from international duty] without a problem."
Meanwhile, Burnley manager Scott Parker shrugged off concerns around the fitness of Hjalmar Ekdal after the center-back limped off during the international break.
Alexander Isak's Sweden teammate, who has lined up in all three of Burnley's Premier League games so far this season, came off with a fitness concern during a 2-0 loss to Kosovo, but he is expected to be fine to play against Liverpool.
Addressing Ekdal's fitness, Parker said: "He's okay, yeah. He came off because he felt a little something, but it's nothing severe. He trained with us today, so he's okay.”
Parker said Burnley has no fresh fitness concerns after the break. “We're fine,” he added. “We are where we are and where we have been really. All players came back fit and healthy from international break, so we're pretty solid there.”
Connor Roberts remains sidelined, as does Jordan Beyer, while Zeki Amdouni and Manuel Benson are long-term absentees for the Clarets.
