Liverpool travel to the capital to take on Tottenham Hotspur in a fascinating Premier League fixture this weekend.
Arne Slot’s side are looking to continue their title challenge against a Spurs side who have been an unpredictable watch.
The Reds have lost just once in 25 games across all competitions and booked their place in the Carabao Cup semi-finals on Wednesday night. A 2-1 win at Southampton saw Liverpool bounce back from successive league draws that have seen their lead at the top reduced.

Spurs will be their opponents in the final four, with this afternoon’s game a precursor to that semi-final tie. The North Londoners beat Manchester United 4-3 in the competition in midweek, having hit five goals before half-time at Southampton last weekend.
Liverpool are nearing a full complement of options with Conor Bradley and Ibrahima Konate the only confirmed absentees for the trip to Tottenham. Diogo Jota and Federico Chiesa have recently returned from layoffs to add to Slot’s attacking options.
Andy Robertson is available again after missing the win at Southampton through suspension. The Scotland captain was sent off during last weekend’s draw with Fulham at Anfield.
Slot opted to rest several big names for the win at St Mary’s, with Mohamed Salah, Virgil van Dijk, Ryan Gravenberch and Alisson all afforded the night off.
Liverpool predicted XI: Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Gomez, Van Dijk, Robertson; Gravenberch, Mac Allister, Szoboszlai; Salah, Gakpo, Diaz.
Tottenham Hotspur host Liverpool in the Premier League on Sunday 22nd December 2024. Kick-off in North London is 16:30 GMT.
The game will be broadcast on Sky Sports Main Event, Sky Sports Premier League and Sky Sports Ultra HDR. Coverage starts 16:00 GMT.
