The fourth round of the Premier League ushered in a game, with Liverpool challenging Burnley as a guest. As the defending champion, Liverpool started the season with excellent performance, winning the first three games, defeating Bournemouth, Newcastle United and Arsenal one after another. This time Liverpool faces Burnley, ranked 17th in the league. Both sides have won all the last five matches. This time, Liverpool was lucky and relied on stoppage time penalty to defeat Burnley.

Liverpool lined up to 4231 formation. Ekitic is in the front. The offensive combination of Garkepo, Werz and Salah jointly attacked. McAllister and Heraffenberg form double midfielders. Kelkez, Van Deck, Conat and Sobosloy started the game. Alisson serves as the starting goalkeeper. Liverpool's starting lineup has a total net worth of 738 million euros. Burnley's starting lineup is only 94.8 million euros. Shortly after the start of the game, Burnley created a better opportunity, but unfortunately Jaden Anthony's shot missed. The game was gradually controlled by Liverpool. Liverpool continues to create threats. However, Konath, Sobosloy and Ekitic all failed to score. The score was still 0-0 in the first half.

Slott kept substitutions in the second half, and Liverpool's offensive became more and more fierce, putting a lot of pressure on Burnley. As a result, Ugoshuku made a foul in the 84th minute and was sent off. Hanbani made a fatal mistake in stoppage time, giving away handball points. Liverpool naturally won't miss such a good opportunity. Salah made a shot and completed the final kill! The final score was fixed at 1-0!

Liverpool's possession rate reached 80% in this game, with 27 crazy shots, but only 4 shots were on the right side, and only scored 1 penalty. Burnley has few opportunities, only 3 shots, no direct shots. Liverpool was able to win this game, but I can only say that they were lucky. Is this the champion?

There is no doubt that Liverpool is the biggest favorite to win the Premier League and the only team to win the Premier League. They won all four league games and occupy the top spot. However, Liverpool played in these games in a thrilling manner, with only 1 goal in three consecutive games, including a narrow victory over Newcastle United 3-2 and a 1-0 victory over Arsenal and Burnley.
