TEAM NEWS: Origi starts as Firmino and Lovren missing for Liverpool against Burnley

The Belgium international starts up front in place of the Brazilian, while Ragnar Klavan continues in the heart of defence on Sunday at Anfield

Divock Origi leads the line for Liverpool with Roberto Firmino ruled out against Burnley, while Dejan Lovren is also sidelined with a sore back.

The Brazilian is absent after picking up a niggle in the 3-1 victory over Arsenal last Saturday, which resulted in him missing the week’s sessions.

That allows Origi to make a first Premier League start since the 1-1 draw with Manchester United at Old Trafford in mid-January.
