The confirmed Liverpool lineup to face Spurs has been announced. The Reds have resorted to their reliable midfield three for the tough test that Tottenham are sure to pose.
Goalkeeper: Alisson Becker
The Brazilian made his first Premier League start since August last weekend when he started in goal against Manchester United. He was unlucky not to get a clean sheet against United and unluckier still against Genk.
Right back: Trent Alexander-Arnold
The Scouser in our team missed the Reds midweek trip to Genk with a virus but he is back in the Liverpool lineup to face Spurs.
Centre back: Dejan Lovren
Despite an error midweek against Genk, Dejan Lovren somehow keeps his place in the Liverpool lineup to face Spurs.
Centre back: Virgil van Dijk
Who else?
Left back: Andy Robertson
The Scotsman came off after an hour against Genk but is fully charged and ready to face Tottenham.
Defensive midfield: Fabinho
Fabinho will need to be at his best today to keep the visitors’ strikers unfed. Expect his long legs to be picking off attacks before they start.
Centre midfield: Jordan Henderson
Having sat out against Genk, the Reds captain is back in the Liverpool lineup to face Spurs.
Centre midfield: Gini Wijnaldum
The Dutchman was also rested against Genk, Wijnaldum with fully charged batteries is a terrifying prospect for any side to face.
Left wing: Sadio Mane
He’s just declared he wants to stay at Liverpool forever, hopefully he’ll show his love for the team and the fans with a goal today.
Right wing: Mo Salah
The Egyptian King had a riveting final 20 minutes against Genk, grabbing a goal and an assist. He knows how to score against Spurs.
Striker: Roberto Firmino
Following a magical midweek display in Belgium, Firmino keeps his place in the Liverpool lineup to face Spurs.
