Today sees the Reds take on Tottenham in a clash that can see Jürgen Klopp’s side break the record for points after 21 games. The unstoppable juggernaut are aiming to win each game a game at a time – nobody has given the Lilywhites a smidgen of a chance today. Here is how Liverpool lineup against Spurs:

Goalkeeper – Alisson Becker

The Brazilian has kept five consecutive clean sheets in the Premier League – the first time the Reds have done so since the Benitez era.

Right back – Trent Alexander-Arnold

The young Scouser has been named the Premier League Player of the Month for December. He deserved it.

Centre beck – Virgil van Dijk

He’s our centre half, he’s our number four, Martin Keown has called him the best the Premier League has ever seen.

Centre back – Joe Gomez

The Englishman is one half of what Keown believes to be the Premier League’s greatest ever defensive partnership.

Left back – Andy Robertson

The Scotsman never lets us down in big games, with him fully rested and recharged for this game we can expect a performance a half from the terrier.

Defensive midfield – Jordan Henderson

The skipper has been playing out of his skin in recent weeks, we haven’t even missed the injured Fabinho – that’s really saying something.

Centre midfield – Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain

We are finally seeing the very best of Naby Keita but the Guinean is injured. Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is named in the Liverpool lineup to face his old enemy, Spurs.

Centre midfield – Gini Wijnaldum

The Dutchman will be hounding the battered and bruised Tottenham side, they won’t be able to cope with his work rate.

Left wing – Sadio Mane

The African player of the year, Sadio enters this game on the top of the world, we can expect him to play as such too.

Firmino role – Roberto Firmino

Bobby performs in big games, particularly away games where he can find space. He will pick apart the makeshift Tottenham defence.

Right wing – Mo Salah

The Egyptian King will be one of the first names in the Liverpool lineup to face Spurs, we’ll be expecting a big performance.
