Team News: Liverpool unchanged for Burnley trip

Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers names an unchanged starting lineup for his side's trip to Turf Moor to play Burnley.

Liverpool striker Mario Balotelli has had to make do with a place on the substitutes' bench for his side's Premier League fixture at Burnley.

Balotelli is available again after sitting out Liverpool's 2-2 draw with Arsenal through suspension, but the Italian forward has only been named on the bench with Brendan Rodgers opting to name an unchanged first XI.

However, there is a first appearance in the first-team squad for Sheyi Ojo, who is named among the replacements.

Burnley manager Sean Dyche is able to name striker Sam Vokes on the substitutes' bench for the first time this season, with the Welshman having recovered from a serious knee injury.

However, Matt Taylor has been left out of the squad after failing to recover from an Achilles problem.

Liverpool XI: Jones, Toure, Skrtel, Sakho, Henderson, Lucas, Gerrard, Markovic, Coutinho, Lallana, Sterling
Subs: Mignolet, Lambert, Moreno, Manquillo, Can, Balotelli, Ojo

Burnley XI: Heaton, Trippier, Shackell, Keane, Mee; Arfield, Jones, Marney, Boyd; Barnes, Ings
Subs: Gilks, Long, Kightly, Wallace, Reid, Jutkiewicz, Vokes
