Liverpool manager Klopp: I have the biggest respect for Sean Dyche

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp says he has the biggest respect for Burnley manager Sean Dyche.

Turf Moor is renowned as one of the toughest away venues in the Premier League.

And Klopp knows his Champions League winning side face no easy contest in East Lancashire on Saturday.

He told the club's website: "Burnley, we all know how tricky this place is. They are in a good moment. They play their style, they just continue doing it. I have the biggest respect for Sean Dyche and what he is doing there. It is always so tough to go.

"We need to prepare that, we will do that, and then the boys fly all over the world going for their national teams. Hopefully they will come back healthy and then the rest of the season starts pretty much."

On having a seven-day break in between games, Klopp added: "[It's] pretty much the last time for… ages! We will use that. I'm looking forward to the week again."
