Liverpool will face off against Tottenham Hotspur at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium this Sunday evening as they look to continue their good form in the Premier League. The Reds managed to secure a 3-1 victory over Newcastle United in midweek. Hence, they will fancy their chances of collecting maximum points away at North London this weekend.
Jurgen Klopp is expected to stick with his favoured 4-3-3 formation and could keep changes to a minimum for this game. Thus, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain will once again get a chance to shine as a box-to-box midfielder while James Milner offers cover on the bench.
4-3-3 Liverpool Predicted Lineup To Face Tottenham Hotspur
Defence
Alisson Becker will assume the duties of Liverpool‘s first-team keeper after failing to secure a clean sheet versus the Magpies in his last league outing. Ibrahima Konate will resume his centre-half partnership with Joel Matip as they look to collectively produce another solid defensive display on the road.
Andrew Robertson would hope to cause a lot of problems for the Tottenham wide players while operating as the left-back while Trent Alexander-Arnold hopes to build on his man-of-the-match display from midweek.
Virgil Van Dijk will be sidelined for this game after being diagnosed with Covid-19 but Joe Gomez should be available for a spot on the bench.
Midfield
Thiago Alcantara, Jordan Henderson and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain will make up Klopp’s midfield. All three of them will have to be at the top of their game if Liverpool are to emerge victorious at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium this weekend.
James Milner and Naby Keita will have to settle for a place on the bench but might come on to make an impact in the second 45 minutes if needed.
Attack
Sadio Mane will get another start on the left flank while Mohamed Salah focuses on prolonging his excellent form from the right.
Diego Jota will lead the line for the Reds down the middle after getting his name on the scoresheet in midweek.
Roberto Firmino will be named on the bench as he awaits his opportunity to impress as a late-game substitute.
