Premier League champions, are preparing for a comeback after the international break in order to increase their lead at the top of the table.
The majority of Arne Slot’s squad was abroad on international action last weekend, but they are now back in Merseyside to commence their title defence, which has begun on a positive note. The Reds have won all three of their opening games, defeating Bournemouth, Newcastle, and Arsenal. This means Liverpool is the only team with a pristine record, and they lead the standings by two points at this early stage.
Burnley are next in line for the Reds, still reeling from their stunning 3-2 defeat to Manchester United. Scott Parker’s newly promoted team paid the price for surrendering a penalty in the 97th minute, after twice coming from behind at Old Trafford and coming agonisingly close to a draw.

Liverpool will be wary, given Burnley upset fast starts Sunderland in their lone home league game this season, and the Clarets also defeated Derby County at Turf Moor in the Carabao Cup. Slot has never faced Burnley, so he’ll be relieved to have an even stronger group owing to Alexander Isak’s arrival on transfer deadline day and the return of two stars from injury. Here is all the latest Anfield news.
Liverpool have welcomed back Jeremie Frimpong and Stefan Bajcetic to training following their separate injury layoffs, according to the Mirror.
Frimpong, a flying fullback, suffered a hamstring injury and missed the Netherlands’ two World Cup qualification matches, as well as Liverpool’s last two Premier League games, following his brief appearance against Bournemouth.
