Liverpool failed to win a home game for the first time since January of last year when held by Burnley on Saturday. | IOLsport

Champions Liverpool failed to win at home for the first time in the Premier League since January 2019 after they were held to a 1-1 draw by Burnley on Saturday.

Liverpool now have 93 points with three games remaining as they hunt down Manchester City's record total of 100 points from two years ago. Burnley are ninth on 50 points. But Liverpool's domination finally came to fruition in the 34th minute when Fabinho floated in a cross from the left and Andy Robertson met it with a perfectly angled header into the top corner.

Liverpool's Roberto Firmino should have had his first league goal at Anfield this season but scuffed his shot against the post in the 49th minute.
