Liverpool will entertain Tottenham Hotspur at Anfield on Sunday hoping to consolidate their place at the top of the Premier League standings. The Reds have a brilliant home record this season and will be confident about their chances of claiming maximum points from this contest.
However, Spurs have shown in the past that they can beat any team when their first-team players are firing on all cylinders so we can expect an entertaining encounter at Merseyside this weekend.
Jurgen Klopp will opt for a 4-3-3 formation and might name an unchanged team for this clash.
4-3-3 Liverpool Predicted Lineup To Face Tottenham Hotspur
Defence
Alisson Becker will retain his place in goal for the Merseysiders as he attempts to keep another clean sheet at Anfield. The centre-half duo of Virgil Van Dijk and Joel Matip will continue to operate ahead of the Brazilian goalie as they try to neutralise Harry Kane’s threat this weekend.
Trent-Alexander Arnold will be in a race against time to be fit for this clash. If the English defensive ace can recover in time, then he might get the nod to start at right-back while Andrew Robertson looks to provide support for the likes of Mane, Lallana and Firmino down the left flank.
The Reds have a stellar defensive record in front of their home supporters this season so they would look to build on that record when they take on Spurs this Sunday.
Midfield
The energetic trio of Fabinho, Adam Lallana and Georginio Wijnaldum will feature at the middle of the park. Liverpool’s midfield three will look to dictate play and retain possession so that the front players have an ideal platform to get the goals up top.
Both James Milner and Jordan Henderson will start on the bench and might come on during the match if required.
Attack
Klopp’s favourite front three picks themselves. The talented trio of Sadio Mane, Roberto Firmino and Mohamed Salah will once again lead the charge for Liverpool up top.
Mane is currently enjoying the form of his life after scoring 11 goals in his past 11 appearances for the Reds. The Senegalese will fancy his chances of finding the back of the net on Sunday if he can get proper service from Firmino and Salah.
