Tottenham Hotspur pay a visit to Anfield, heading into a clash with Liverpool on Sunday, hoping to pick up a positive result on the away encounter. The Reds come into the match on the back of a 3- 2 victory in the return leg of the UCL semifinals as they triumphed over Villareal booking their place in the Champions League finals, whereas the Spurs recorded a 3-0 victory over Leicester City.
Team News
The Lilywhites remain without Olivier Skipp who has undergone surgery in the groin area. Tangana (knee) and Doherty (ligament) miss out on the rest of the season following injury woes.
Antonio Conte will probably opt for the 4-3-3 formation with a couple of tweaks from the last match.
3-4-3 Predicted Lineup Tottenham Hotspur vs Liverpool
Hugo Lloris will start in goal for the upcoming away encounter. The French shot-stopper would hope to put up a strong performance and secure a clean sheet.
Dier will take the central position in the backline along with Davies and Romero on the wide areas, completing a three-man defence. The duo would be asked to remain compact in the backline.
Midfield
Hojbjerg and Bentancur would look to anchor the midfield as they are expected to exploit the Reds’ defence with the former set to be given more of a defensive role. The duo would be determined to set up some clear-cut goal-scoring chances for the men upfront.
Emerson and Sessegnon should take up the wide positions, playing down the right and left wings, respectively.
Attack
Harry Kane will lead the line against Jesse Marsch’s side, and the striker will fancy his chances of finding the back of the net. Furthermore, Heung-Min Son will look to support the English striker being on the left wing and Kulusevski might get the nod over Lucas Moura to feature on the right wing.
