Tottenham vs Liverpool: Preview, Injury News & Predicted Teams

Liverpool head south to London this Sunday to take on Tottenham Hotspur, who come in on the back of a win against Wolves last weekend.

But another interesting thing about this encounter is that Tottenham also took part in the Europa League in mid-week and only managed a draw against PAOK. (although they were playing a young side)

Team News

Liverpool FC Injuries: Glen Johnson (Doubtful, Hamstring), Steven Gerrard (Doubtful, Groin), Martin Kelly (Doubtful, Groin)

Tottenham Hotspur Injuries: Michael Dawson, Sandro (Long Term Injuries) Rafael van der Vaart (Doubtful, hamstring), Aaron Lennon (Doubtful, groin), William Gallas (Doubtful, calf), Steven Pienaar (Doubtful, groin), Tom Huddlestone (Doubtful, ankle)

Head to Head

At Tottenham: Liverpool 20 wins, Tottenham 33 wins, 15 draws.

Ambition

Tottenham have had a rocky start to the new season, but with fixtures against Manchester United and Manchester City, who can really blame them? Whilst Liverpool come in on the back of their first loss of the season, Spurs come in on the back of their first victory of the new campaign.

Both sides should be fighting for that elusive 4th spot which gives them a lucrative entry into the Champions League and this one is perhaps an ‘early decider’.

Probable Starting Lineups

Tottenham: Friedel, Walker, King, Kaboul, Assou-Ekotto, Lennon, Parker, Modric, Bale, Defoe, Adebayor.

Liverpool: Reina, Flanagan, Agger, Carragher, Enrique, Adam, Lucas, Bellamy, Gerrard, Downing, Suarez

I dont think either Gerrard or Flanagan will start this match,they might be on the bench but not from the start.I’d say this squad:
Reina
Skrtel Carragher Agger Enrique
Lucas Adam
Kuyt Henderson Downing
Suarez
Carroll,Gerrard and Bellamy to come as subs and Liverpool to win 1-3.LETS GO REDS! YNWA

3-1 Spurs, Adebayor with a brace and a goal from Defoe, Liverpool to get their goal in the first half to make it 1-1 prior to a thumping in the 2nd.

Tottenham to win 8-1, Kranjcar bags his first hatrick, Defoe and Manu score 2 each and Parker gets his inaugural spurs goal. Friedel goes off with a broken hip, Gomes comes on, fumbles a charlie adam left footed thunderbolt and it slowly makes its way to the back net.Im itk on this one Doc Brown and Marty McFly popped out the DeLorean and gave me these results.
