Tottenham and will Liverpool will lock horns for the 3rd time this season and Manager Pochettino’s side will be eager to end their run of 2 consecutive defeats against their league rivals.

HEAD TO HEAD RECORD:
The two sides have faced each other on 172 occasions and Liverpool have the upper hand with 82 victories compared to Spurs 48 victories while 42 of them ended in a draw.
The reverse fixture in March saw Liverpool defeat Spurs 2-1 at the Anfield courtesy of a last-minute howler by Spurs Goalkeeper Lloris.
RECENT FORM:
Liverpool have only suffered a single defeat in their last 23 matches, the only defeat came against Barcelona in the Champions league semi-final however a 4-0 victory in the second leg meant the defeat against Barcelona did no harm to the club.
