Liverpool can go top of the Premier League table again by avoiding defeat at Burnley tonight.

A pair of contrasting draws at home to United and Arsenal have kept Liverpool on steady pace to challenge for the title, even if they are yet to sparkle and dazzle like true champions might.

Nonetheless, Klopp will point to his team being right in the mix at this point as a near-perfect execution of his plans for the season.

Likewise, Vincent Kompany is out to keep his Burnley side looking up having hit decent form of late in their battle to beat the drop.
