Liverpool will take on Tottenham Hotspur as they welcome them to Anfield on Sunday, hoping to grab all three points from this contest. The Reds recorded a narrow 2-1 win against West Ham United that helped them climb the league table. Given the current Premier League table, as the Lilywhites could only earn a single point in their previous match and Aston Villa caught up with them, the Anfield club has a genuine opportunity to claim the fifth spot in the standings, having played one game less.
Jurgen Klopp will probably opt for the 4-3-3 formation and is expected to keep the changes to a minimum for this contest. Cody Gapko will continue to lead the charge against the opposition while Alisson looks to operate in goal.
4-3-3 Liverpool Predicted XI Vs Tottenham Hotspur
After conceding one goal in his last league appearance, Alisson Becker will continue to function in goal for the Merseyside giants. Joel Matip will operate alongside Virgil Van Dijk at the heart of Liverpool’s backline as they focus on stopping the Tottenham attackers from scoring this weekend.
Trent Alexander-Arnold will continue as the right-back, while Andrew Robertson operates as the left-back. Both of them will have to defend their lines well and create decent goal-scoring chances from the wide areas.
Kostas Tsimikas and Joe Gomez will be available for selection on the bench as they offer cover for the defensive positions.
Midfield
Jordan Henderson, Fabinho and Curtis Jones will make up Liverpool’s midfield as they look to establish their superiority over the opposition at the centre of the park.
Both Henderson and Jones have to find a way to engineer a few promising chances for the Reds in the final third.
Thiago Alcantara will be named on the bench and might come on to influence the game in the second half if Klopp decides to call upon his services.
Attack
Diogo Jota will continue as the left-sided wide player, while Mohamed Salah hopes to be productive on the right flank.
As mentioned earlier, Cody Gakpo will lead the charge for the Merseyside club in the final third. The Dutch forward has to find a way to cause a few headaches for the North London defenders.
Darwin Nunez will be available for selection on the bench as he waits for his chance to shine in the game’s latter stages if required.
