Liverpool travel to Turf Moor to face Burnley this Tuesday, at 6:30 p.m., for the 19th day of the Premier League. A trap match on paper which should still turn to the advantage of the Reds, held in check against Arsenal last Saturday (1-1). Second in the standings with 39 points, just behind the Gunners (40), Jürgen Klopp’s team is on track to play for the title until the end of the season. But to do this, it will be necessary to maintain the same level of requirements, while distancing ourselves from competitors over time.
Virgil Van Dijk knows this situation well, having battled in recent years with Manchester City for the final trophy. The Dutchman is satisfied with his team, and has warned the other Premier League leaders about the title race. “It’s December, there are still so many games to play. The title race is not happening now: in February or March we will be able to see who is fighting for the title. We must now ensure we stay above, in the upper part of the ranking. With consistency we have the quality to do it, but consistency is the hardest thing to achieve as players and as a team.he declared before facing Burnley this Saturday.
