After being held by United for a draw, Liverpool welcome a weak Burnley side to Anfield on Wednesday night and will be looking to overturn their poor run of form with a comprehensive win. Liverpool have failed to win in their last four matches and haven’t scored in their last three games but should have too much quality for seventeenth place Burnley who have lost three of their last four games and are in a relegation battle.

Liverpool FC vs Burnley FC Betting Tips
Safe Bets
Burnley have scored the least goals in the league this season, netting only nine goals , even lesser than last placed Sheffield United. Liverpool on the other hand have conceded the third least goals this season and managed to keep a clean sheet against leaders United during the weekend too, hence betting on Liverpool to keep a clean sheet at odds of 1.70 (betway) is one of the safest bets of the match.
Though Burnley have been weak offensively they have a solid defense and have conceded only one more goal this season than Liverpool. They haven’t conceded more than one goal in their last nine games, therefore you can also bet on total goals scored being less than 2.5 at odds of 2.50 (WilliamHill) as it gives good returns at minimal risk.
Mohammed Salah is the current top scorer of the league and will be looking to get back on the scoresheet to get his team the win and extend his lead for the golden boot. With him being the first choice penalty taker, betting on him to score a goal at odds of 1.50 (WilliamHill) is another safe bet.
Quick Rich
Roberto Firmino will be leading the attack and linking the midfield to Mane and Salah as usual for Liverpool. He averages almost one shot on target per game this season and hence betting on a combination of him to have over on shot on target and assist a goal at odds of 6.00 (WilliamHill) gives high returns at a small risk.
Liverpool have earned the highest number of corners this season at average of almost eight per game, while Burnley too have earned four corners per game, therefore betting on a combination of over 11.5 corners conceded and under 2.5 goals scored at odds of 5.25 (betway) is one of the best bets of the match.
Win/Lose/Draw
Though Liverpool have been performing poorly, they are clear favourites to win the game as shown by the odds of 1.20 (betway) against an unstable Burnley side. Liverpool have performed well under pressure and will be looking to get an easy win before they face United and Spurs in the next two weeks.
Bet During the Match
As Liverpool face Manchester United again after two days, we expect Klopp to rest some of his players and as Curtis Jones didn’t start against United on the weekend, is he starts against Burnley betting on him to take over two shots at odds of 20 (WilliamHill) is another good bet.
Liverpool overall form: DDLWD
