Liverpool moved top of the Premier League after Darwin Nunez ended his goal drought in a 2-0 win at Burnley on Boxing Day.
The Uruguay striker had gone over 600 minutes without a goal but scored early at Turf Moor, rifling an effort home from the edge of the box.
Despite registering eight shots on target in the first half, Liverpool struggled in front of goal with VAR coming to Burnley's rescue just after half-time when Harvey Elliott's effort was ruled out for Mohamed Salah standing in an offside position.
The longer the game progressed, the more Burnley sensed an equaliser as Jurgen Klopp's team became sloppy but Johann Berg Gudmundsson squandered a glorious chance when heading over from close range.
Liverpool wrapped up the points in stoppage time when the returning Diogo Jota slotted home from a tight angle.
Arsenal have a chance to leapfrog Liverpool back to the summit on Thursday when hosting West Ham.
