Liverpool’s alone at the top of the table after beating Arsenal 3-1 last week. It looks like a battle’s shaping up with Manchester City, just as many expected when they previewed the 2019-20 Premier League season. The team’s next stop in an attempted Invincibles season—or at least a league title—is the late match on Saturday, when they travel to Turf Moor to face Burnley.
Here’s everything you need to know to live stream Home Team vs. Visting Team, including what to watch for on the pitch.

Liverpool vs. Burnley live stream: How to watch Premier League matches
The match is on NBC; the following services provide a one-week trial and therefore an easy way to watch Premier League matches for free.

Sling TV provides two base channel package options, each priced at $25 per month. Sling Orange includes three ESPN channels, while Sling Blue includes sports channels like NBCSN (where many Premier League matches appear), NFL Network, FS1 and FS2, and local channels.

To add beIN SPORTS and maximize your soccer-watching potential, you’ll want to add either Sports Extra: Sling Orange ($5 per month) or Sports Extra: Sling Blue ($10 per month).

Spanish-speaking viewers have quite a few options. For bilingual families, you might consider the Español: Best of Spanish TV package for either Sling Orange or Sling Blue for 24/7 specialty channel LaLiga TV and beIN SPORTS Connect: Channels 4-9, which features matches from La Liga, Ligue 1 and Copa del Rey, among others. Both packages cost $5 per month after your free trial. Sling TV Latino is another Spanish-language package for $10 per month, including NBC Universo, History en Español, and—of import to soccer fans—four beIN SPORTS channels. (And choosing Sling TV Latino + Sling Orange for $30 per month gives you access to ESPN Deportes.) For more information, check out our guide to Sling TV channels and our Sling TV review.

Liverpool vs. Burnley: What to watch for
It wasn’t quite the ideal start for Liverpool last week: It took the Reds nearly the whole first half to score, and they did it on a Joel Matip corner-kick header. But then Mo Salah scored two second-half goals, helping Liverpool put Arsenal away fairly easily for what was its toughest test to date this season.
Burnley, meanwhile, finds itself sixth in the league after three matches, recovering from a Week 2 loss to Arsenal to draw against Wolves last weekend. It looked like Ashley Barnes’ 13-minute goal would hold up until the final whistle, but Raul Jimenez converted a penalty kick deep into stoppage time to deny Burnley the points. Still, on the whole, it’s had a positive start to the season and will look for a statement result at home against the European champions.
