Liverpool vs Tottenham Hotspur – Predicted lineup and team news | OneFootball

Liverpool host Tottenham Hotspur in the Carabao Cup third round on Tuesday, with Andoni Iraola looking for his first domestic cup victory since taking charge at Anfield this summer.

Victory would move Liverpool a step closer to a record-extending 11th League Cup triumph. The Reds have played a game every two to three days for over a week, and Iraola has been open about needing to manage his squad’s workload carefully heading into a similarly demanding October.

Liverpool team news

Liverpool will be without Conor Bradley, Federico Chiesa, Hugo Ekitike and Giovanni Leoni, all of whom remain long-term absentees. Joe Gomez is back in training after a pre-season muscle injury and has been confirmed as available, giving Iraola the option of resting Virgil van Dijk for the first time this season.

Giorgi Mamardashvili is confirmed to start in goal in place of Alisson, and Iraola is expected to make several further changes after Saturday’s flat display against Fulham. Trey Nyoni is set to come into midfield, potentially alongside Alexis Mac Allister, while Wataru Endo could make his first appearance of the season, likely deployed at centre-back, and Cody Gakpo is a candidate to lead the line.

Liverpool possible starting XI (4-2-3-1): Mamardashvili; Frimpong, Araujo, Endo, Tsimikas; Mac Allister, Nyoni; Ngumoha, Koumas, Munoz; Gakpo
