Liverpool are set to face Tottenham Hotspur at the Anfield tomorrow, hoping to pick up the three points on their home turf. The Reds come into the match on the back of a 3- 2 victory in the return leg of the Champions League semifinals as they triumphed over Villareal booking their place in the finals.
Team News
Things aren’t looking good for Firminho as he remains sidelined due to a foot injury. Apart from this, Jurgen Klopp’s side do not have any other setback as they look to take the lead over Manchester City in the Premier League table.
Klopp will probably opt for the 4-3-3 formation with a couple of tweaks from the last match.
4-3-3 Predicted Liverpool Lineup vs Tottenham Hotspur
Defence
Alisson Becker should operate between the sticks for the upcoming clash. The Brazilian shot-stopper would hope to put up a strong performance and secure a clean sheet on Sunday.
Ibrahima Konate will look to partner with Virgil van Dijk at the heart of Liverpool’s backline as they look to stop Tottenham in their tracks.
Andrew Robertson is a guaranteed starter at the left wing-back position, whereas Trent Alexander-Arnold will fill in on the other flank as the right wing-back. The full-backs will be expected to stretch the opposition.
Midfield
Fabinho might start in the holding midfield position and could be assigned with more of a defensive role to shield the back-four.
Jordan Henderson gets the nod over Naby Kieta and Thiago Alcantara will slot into the other central midfield role. The duo would be determined to set up some clear-cut goal scoring chances for the front men.
Attack
Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah will take up the wide positions, playing on the left and right-wing, respectively.
Diego Jota will lead the line against the Spurs at the weekend. The Portuguese forward will be hoping to get his name on the scoresheet when he faces off against the opposition’s backline.
