Liverpool 1-1 Burnley: Premier League Match Recap

Liverpool drew 1-1 with Burnley in a Premier League Round 22 encounter at Anfield on January 17, 2026.[5] The result marked another frustration for the Reds, as they failed to beat any of this season's three promoted sides at home.[5]



The match took place under the management of Liverpool at their home ground, Anfield, with Andy Madley as the match official.[2] Liverpool entered the game with a record of 10 wins, 5 draws, and 6 losses for 35 points in the league standings, while Burnley arrived with significantly weaker form at 3 wins, 4 draws, and 14 losses for just 13 points.[4]

Despite Liverpool's superior league position and home advantage, they were unable to secure all three points against the struggling promoted side. The draw means Liverpool remain in mid-table contention with 35 points from 21 matches, while Burnley, one of the season's promoted clubs, continue their difficult campaign in the top flight.

The fixture highlighted Liverpool's inconsistency against newly promoted teams this season, as they have now drawn or lost against all three promoted sides when playing at Anfield. This result will be viewed as two points dropped for Jürgen Klopp's side as they look to mount a challenge for the title.
