Team news
TOTTENHAM
With no activity in the transfer window, Mauricio Pochettino’s side will look to bounce back from a disappointing display against Watford to reclaim their place as title hopefuls. Their inability to match their previous display at Old Trafford where they cruised to a 3-0 victory over Mourinho’s United left team coach Pochettino unhappy.
They will get another opportunity to respond to pundits claims of complacency when they come up against Liverpool. With the likes of Harry Kane leading the attack, Eriksen and an in-form Lucas Moura, they should be able to trouble the Liverpool defence who have so far let in only one goal this season.

LIVERPOOL
Already being branded title favourites, Liverpool will look to retain the top spot as they square up against Pochettino’s men. With four wins from four, they will be looking to continue a fine run of form.
New signing Naby Keita has settled in well with fine displays so far and will be expected to link up with Roberto Firminho, deadly Sadio Mane, and last season’s top scorer Mo Salah to trouble the opposition.
With sensational defender Virgil van Dijk in defence to keep Harry Kane at bay and new goalkeeper Alisson between the sticks, Liverpool look set to do more damage.

Verdict
This is a very difficult game to predict, Liverpool are in great form at the moment and Spurs are a very good team. I am going to go with a Liverpool win here of 2-1, a draw was tempting but I think Liverpool will have too much for Spurs in this one.
wow. this will be a thriller.
I think Liverpool will take it too at 3-2, but I'd wager on the 5 and 6+ total goals and watch the show.
