Keeps clean sheet in draw Pope made two saves and kept a clean sheet during Saturday's scoreless draw against Norwich.

Impact Pope didn't have much work coming his way, but showed his usual poise when the opposition came firing, keeping his first clean sheet of the season. The goalkeeper will probably rack up many others during this campaign, but it's highly unlikely that the next one will come during Oct. 16 visit to Manchester City.

Average in draw Pope made two saves and one clearance during Saturday's two-all draw with Leicester.

Two saves in defeat Pope made two saves and two clearances during Saturday's 1-0 defeat to Arsenal.

Allows three goals in loss Pope conceded a trio of goals while making three saves in a loss to Everton on Monday.

Impact Pope has been under near-constant pressure this season, he has been called upon to make 14 saves through the first four matches and giving up eight goals along the way. A matchup with Arsenal on Saturday is unlikely to ease the burden on Pope, who could offer decent fantasy value if called upon again for a high volume of saves.

Impact Pope has missed the last two matches with a knee issue, but if he's training, he should be back in the XI Sunday. His return would be a boost for Burnley, who have allowed seven goals in Pope's absence. If he isn't ready, Will Norris and Bailey Peacock-Farrell would again compete for a start.

Impact Pope was a late absence for the match over the weekend and on a short week, there's a decent chance he misses out Wednesday. Burnley have not faired well in Pope's absence this season and while some of that has to do with schedule, a matchup against a hungry Liverpool team won't be helpful to the back line Wednesday.
