Liverpool's position at the Premier League's summit was cut to two points after their loss against Arsenal.
The Reds succumbed to a disappointing 3-1 loss at the Emirates Stadium, having been well below their best in all departments.
Jurgen Klopp's side were lacklustre in defence, bossed in midfield and lacked a spark in the final third. While it's hardly a time to hit the panic button, with Liverpool suffering just a second loss in the league this season, they'll swiftly want to bounce back when they face Burnley on Saturday.
Despite the Clarets languishing in the relegation zone, Klopp knows that Liverpool will be in for a stern examination. He said: "Nobody here expects, in our dressing room at least, that we just will fly over Burnley or whatever. They fight for their targets, it's a really talented group, unlucky in moments and stuff like this.
"But it's a home game and we can turn things around, meaning the first step, and then we will see. Today nobody celebrates the champion and nobody is relegated as far as I know, so we have all the chance to create our own destiny. Let's see what happens."
Injuries have taken their toll on the Reds this term, with several key players spending significant periods on the sidelines. Several of their troops were unavailable to face Arsenal, including talisman Mo Salah. Ahead of the Burnley game, here's an early look at the current injury situation at Anfield.

9. Stefan Bajcetic - growing pains
The Reds have been cautious with the 19-year-old given the nature of his injury. Klopp recently said it’ll be sooner rather than later before Bajcetic, who enjoyed a breakthrough season in 2022-23, is back for Liverpool. Potential return game: N/A | Liverpool FC via Getty Images
