Comments:

League position: 7th Burnley had now conceded more goals in their last two Premier League games at Turf Moor (five) than they did in in their first nine home games of the season (three). The Clarets were now without a win in their last five games in the Premier League (lost two); their longest such run so far in this season. This was their first defeat in the last five games they had played on a New Year's Day.

Comments:

League position: 4th Liverpool had now gone 16 games unbeaten in all competitions (won 11). Ragnar Klavan's goal was the first scored by an Estonian player in Premier League. Estonia became the 97th different nation to have a player score a Premier League goal. This was the Reds' first away win in the Premier League on a New Year's Day since 1994 when they won at Ipswich Town with goals from Neil Ruddock and Ian Rush.
