It was a result that almost every Kopite would have taken before kick-off.
But Jurgen Klopp admitted that the injuries to Alisson Becker and Diogo Jota cast a 'shadow' over Liverpool's 1-1 draw against Manchester City in the Premier League.
The hard-fought point, courtesy of a wonderful Trent Alexander-Arnold strike, ensured that the Reds remain on the coattails of the reigning champions in the title race. However, Liverpool will be hit by a hammer blow if Alisson and Jota are sidelined for the long term.
Klopp admitted that the pair were set for scans after the Etihad Stadium encounter. The Reds next face LASK in the Europa League at Anfield on Thursday (20.00 GMT) and here is the latest on the injury front heading into the clash.
1. Joe Gomez - illness
A flu outbreak meant that the defender, who has been in outstanding form of late, could not feature against Burnley. Gomez did report for duty on the eve of the game but was sent home as he had a temperature. That suggests he should be back for the Reds’ next match.
Potential return game: Brentford (A), Saturday 17 February.
2. Trent Alexander-Arnold - knee
The Liverpool vice-captain was forced at half-time against Burnley with a recurrence of an issue that saw him miss four matches recently. Alexander-Arnold got his studs stuck in the ground and was not risked. The right-back was not overly concerned by his problem but further assessment was required. Potential return game: Brentford (A), Saturday 17 February
3. Mo Salah - hamstring
It is approaching four weeks since Liverpool’s talisman suffered his setback representing Egypt at the African Cup of Nations. The Reds have coped without Salah bar their loss at title rivals Arsenal. There is a chance that the winger could be back in parts of training this week, which could see him back in the squad at Brentford. Potential return game: Brentford (A), Saturday 17 February or Luton (H), Wednesday 21 February.
4. Alisson Becker - illness
Klopp admitted that his No.1 goalkeeper could not eat or sleep ahead of the Burnley game, so Caoimhin Kelleher deputised superbly. Much will depend on how Alisson recovers from his sickness. Potential return game: Brentford (A), Saturday 17 February
