Burnley v Liverpool team news: Reds unchanged, no Isak

Burnley take on Liverpool in the penultimate fixture of Gameweek 4, with kick-off at Turf Moor at 14:00 BST.

The headline team news is that there is no **Alexander Isak** in the matchday squad for Liverpool.

Explaining his absence, Arne Slot said:

> “We’ve decided it is the best for him to have a proper week of training instead of every time going for five or ten minutes of playing.

>

> “I can assure the fans that he will be involved on Wednesday – but this game came a bit too early.” – Arne Slot on Alexander Isak

The Reds are unchanged from the team that beat Arsenal 1-0 prior to the international break.

**Dominik Szoboszlai** continues at right-back, with the fit-again **Jeremie Frimpong** and **Conor Bradley** on the bench.

**Mohamed Salah**, **Florian Wirtz**, **Cody Gakpo** and **Hugo Ekitike** make up the front four.

There’s two changes for Burnley as **Josh Laurent** and **Loum Tchaouna** come in for **Hannibal Mejbri** and **Jacob Bruun Larsen**, who is not in the squad.

**Hjalmar Ekdal** starts despite limping off for Sweden earlier this week.

**Burnley XI:** Dubravka, Walker, Ekdal, Esteve, Hartman, Ugochukwu, Cullen, Tchaouna, Laurent, Anthony, Foster

_Subs:_ _Weiss, Worrall, Edwards, Humphreys, Florentino, Flemming, Pires, Broja, Hannibal_

**Liverpool XI:** Alisson, Szoboszlai, Konate, van Dijk, Kerkez, Gravenberch, Mac Allister, Salah, Wirtz, Gakpo, Ekitike
