Liverpool will face one of their toughest tests of the season as they prepare to take on Tottenham away from home in their next Premier League clash.
Spurs have had a bit of an up-and-down campaign so far, but they’re never pushovers against the big sides, having already won away to Manchester United and Manchester City in emphatic style.
Liverpool, meanwhile, have drawn two in a row in the Premier League as we perhaps start to see the first signs of a bit of a wobble from Arne Slot’s side.
Who will come out on top in this fixture? Read on for our look ahead to what is always a pretty entertaining game in the Premier League season…
Ange Postecoglou rotated his side a little in Tottenham’s impressive 5-0 win away to Southampton, but we imagine some of the more established first choice names will be coming back into the side for a big game like this.
Pedro Porro and Brennan Johnson were dropped to the bench for the strip to the St Mary’s Stadium and seem like strong candidates to start against Liverpool, though you can never be too sure what injuries might pop up in training over the course of the next few days.
Tottenham predicted line up: Forster; Porro, Udogie, Van de Ven, Dragusin; Bissouma, Sarr; Kulusevski, Johnson, Maddison, Son
Liverpool should have a mostly full squad to pick from against Tottenham, but have a few issues in defence, with the suspended Andrew Robertson set to be missing after his red card against Fulham.
And judging by Arne Slot’s recent comments, Liverpool might also have problems elsewhere at the back as it’s not yet clear how close Ibrahima Konate and Kostas Tsimikas are to returning.
That could mean a bit of a makeshift back four against Spurs, even if the team have been boosted by the returns of Alisson and Trent Alexander-Arnold…
Liverpool predicted line up: Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Gomez, Van Dijk, Quansah; Jones, Gravenberch, Mac Allister; Salah, Diaz, Gakpo

Liverpool have the major upper hand in this fixture’s history, winning 90 games against Spurs in total, losing just 49, while there have been 44 draws.
In recent times, we’ve also seen far more Reds victories, with that 4-1 defeat for Jurgen Klopp’s side against Mauricio Pochettino’s team back in 2017 feeling like a very long time ago now.
Since then, Tottenham have won just once, and that was with the aid of a highly controversial VAR call last season that ruled out a perfectly good Luis Diaz goal for offside.
