LIVERPOOL -- Roberto Firmino has been left out of Liverpool's starting XI for the Premier League encounter with Burnley on Sunday due to injury, with Divock Origi coming into the team.
Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp revealed on Thursday that Firmino had been unable to train at Melwood this past week after he suffered a setback during the 3-1 victory over Arsenal.
Origi starts instead against Burnley, with the Belgium international having scored eight goals in 32 appearances this season.
Firmino has spent the majority of the 2016-17 campaign leading Liverpool's frontline from a false nine position, finding the back of the net 10 times.
Meanwhile, Ragnar Klavan keeps his place in the Liverpool starting XI alongside Joel Matip in the heart of the back four.
