Liverpool host Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday afternoon, with the two teams likely to be vying for fifth place and a Europa League spot this season.

The Reds have a game in hand on Spurs but are currently two places and one point behind them - Aston Villa the team separating these sides. Even so, Jurgen Klopp’s team are on a three-match win streak and look better-settled in possession than earlier in the campaign.

With home form still strong they’ll be the favourites heading into this encounter, particularly following Spurs’ thrashing by Newcastle in their last away game.

Ryan Mason did, however, manage to get a response out of his team to fight back for a 2-2 draw in midweek against Man United, in what was his opening match at the helm after taking over from Cristian Stellini.

Here’s everything you need to know ahead of the game.
