Liverpool’s Expected Starting Lineup Against Tottenham: Major Injury Blow, Nunez Left Out

Liverpool’s Expected Starting Lineup Against Tottenham: Major Injury Blow, Nunez Left Out

Liverpool showed resilience to salvage a draw against Fulham last weekend after going down to 10 men early. However, dropping points for a third straight Premier League match would increase pressure at the top of the table, especially if Chelsea defeat Everton.

How will manager Arne Slot set up his team at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium? Several changes are likely from the midweek Carabao Cup win over Southampton.

Predicted Liverpool XI vs Tottenham:

GK: Alisson Becker – The Brazilian returns between the posts after being rested midweek.

RB: Trent Alexander-Arnold – His creative passing could unlock Tottenham’s defense.

CB: Joe Gomez – Likely to partner the captain with Ibrahima Konate injured.

CB: Virgil van Dijk – The rock at the heart of Liverpool’s backline.

LB: Andy Robertson – Looking to bounce back after last week’s red card.

CM: Ryan Gravenberch – Has excelled in the deep-lying midfield role this season.

CM: Curtis Jones – Expected to return to the starting lineup after being rested.

Liverpool will aim to maintain their unbeaten run and put pressure on league leaders Arsenal with a strong performance against Tottenham.
