WHO'S GOING TO BE YOUR

MAN OF THE MATCH?

Liverpool leapfrog Leicester into fourth place

Goals by Roberto Firmino, Nat Phillips and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain moved Liverpool into the top four for the first time since February as they won 3-0 at Burnley.

Liverpool enjoyed the better of the first half, with Sadio Mane, Thiago and Mohamed Salah all going close, while Chris Wood fired Burnley's best chance wide.

Firmino put Liverpool in front after 43 minutes, slotting in from Andrew Robertson's cross.

The Reds doubled their lead seven minutes into the second half after Sadio Mane's centre was headed in by Phillips for his first Premier League goal. 

Burnley threatened to find a way back into the contest, but they fell further behind thanks to substitute Oxlade-Chamberlain's left-footed drive.

A fourth win in a row puts Liverpool on to 66 points, one below Chelsea, as they leapfrog Leicester City on goal difference.

They go into Matchweek 38 knowing they can qualify for next season's UEFA Champions League if they match the Foxes' result against Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday. 

Burnley stay 17th on 39 points.
