Two clubs in opposite halves of the Premier League table will do battle today in a match between Liverpool and Burnley. The first-division clash scheduled for 3 p.m. ET will be held at Anfield Stadium in Liverpool and can be live streamed here free.
What They're Saying
Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers (via Sky Sports): "It wasn't working. We had a huge challenge, probably the biggest I have had as a coach or manager. We had no identity and everyone could see it. We just weren't the team I had built over a couple of years, certainly created the identity with the way we played. I knew I had to do something radical because I had seen enough of the players to know we were not going to be able to shape up and work and play as we had done for the previous couple of years with what we had got."
Burnley manager Sean Dyche (via the Daily Star): "The key thing is knowing what players are capable of doing. I've got a year of evidence from most of the group from last season and now evidence from this season."
Tactical Preview
Player to Watch: Liverpool's resurgence coincides with the meteoric rise of Philippe Coutinho. In 24 league appearances, the 22-year-old has four goals and an average of 1.3 key passes.
Liverpool's Projected Lineup (3-4-2-1): Mignolet; Sakho, Skrtel, Can; Moreno, Allen, Henderson, Markovic; Coutinho, Lallana; Sturridge
Swansea Projected Lineup (4-4-1-1): Heaton; Mee, Shackell, Keane, Trippier; Kightly, Jones, Arfield, Boyd; Barnes, Ings
