Liverpool will take on Tottenham Hotspur at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Matchday 17 of the Premier League at 5.30pm local time as they look to make it three wins after Inter Milan and Brighton & Hove Albion last week.
Arne Slot’s men have played some decent football and the situation with Mohamed Salah has also been resolved, although the Egyptian will not be available for the match as he is on duty with his national team at the AFCON.
Here’s how the Reds could line up against Tottenham.
Goalkeeper – Alisson Becker was able to stay in goal after keeping two clean sheets in his last two appearances in all competitions.
Defenders – Conor Bradley is now fully fit and could start for the first time since recovering from his injury. The 22-year-old is expected to replace Joe Gomez at right-back, while Milos Kerkez may continue to play on the left.
Ibrahima Konate and Virgil van Dijk are expected to complete Liverpool’s center back line-up during their trip to London.
Ekitike was preferred to Isak
Midfielders – Curtis Jones and Ryan Gravenberch replaced the double pivots for Liverpool in the last game and could continue to do the same this time. Consequently, Alexis Mac Allister’s role could be as the team’s number 10 against Spurs.
With Mohamed Salah on international duty and Cody Gakpo injured, Dominik Szoboszlai could be chosen as Liverpool’s right winger, while Florian Wirtz could be given the spot on the left flank.
Come on – Hugo Ekitike has scored four goals in his last two Premier League matches and could lead the Reds again, ahead of Alexander Isak.
This is what visitors may look like on paper.
