Burnley are in good form right now, and Liverpool are without their captain, but even Sean Dyche will struggle to come up with a way to stop Liverpool in full flow. Liverpool 2-0 Burnley.
Here's how the bottom of the Premier League looks as things stand:
The players are out at the respective roads, Carrow and Vicarage. Almost time for kick off in the first two games of the day.
There'll be a minute of silence in memory of Jack Charlton at both stadiums.
2 min: Some early attacking intent from West Ham as Bowen surges down the right and breaks into the box. He takes a slightly heavy touch before he can get a shot off, though.
3 min: Saint-Maximin looks lively early on at Vicarage Road, whipping a dangerous ball across the face of goal. It misses everyone, but he's going to be a real threat for the visitors.
4 min: A decent chance for Soucek, who latches onto a mis-hit Antonio shot and almost squeezes the ball in from a tight angle. West Ham are on top early on.
8 min: Soucek is involved again at Carrow Road as Antonio drives down the left and pulls back towards the edge of the box. The Czech midfielder tries to place a low shot into the bottom corner but sends it just wide.
