All eyes will be on Jurgen Klopp as he commandeers his Liverpool troops for the first time at White Hart Lane. Tottenham are in the midst of a seven-match unbeaten streak, with their only defeat of the season arriving through a Kyle Walker own goal. The Reds, meanwhile, have tasted victory just once in the last six Gameweeks.

Spurs enter this head-to-head with a spring in their step, having put Manchester City to the sword in their last home tie. Only the Sky Blues (32) and Arsenal (28) have fashioned more accurate attempts (27) on their own turf than the Lilywhites, suggesting that Liverpool could struggle to earn a shut-out in Klopp’s debut encounter. Spurs have fared well at the other end, too, considering that only three sides have conceded fewer goals (three) at home.

Only West Bromwich Albion have carved out fewer big chances (two) on their travels than Liverpool (three) this term, underlining their paucity of creativity away from Anfield. Nonetheless, the Merseysiders rank joint-third over the past two Gameweeks for shots on target (16) and joint-fourth for shots inside the box (25). On the flip side, only Newcastle United (13) and Leicester City (11) have seen their rearguard breached on more occasions than Liverpool (10) since Gameweek 4.

    1. Jax
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 5 months ago

      Cos it kicked off at 12.30

      1. Jax

        12.45*

          You stuffed up your smart reply, hard luck...

  19. tm245

    Walcott VC...nervous times as a Hazard captainer.

  20. Greenbackbøøg…
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 5 months ago

    Whats the reasoning behind benching hazard? He's been in better form than most of the starters for Chelsea today...

    1. Billy Gilmore
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 5 months ago

      To give him a kick up the arse?

    2. internal error
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

      Might have a slight knock

  21. boc610
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 5 months ago

    extra extra player who played 180mins during an international week benched shocker!!

    the state of some of you on here

  22. Reedy
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 5 months ago

    Mahrez got back late and didn't train. I don't know why everyone's shouting 'sell'. We knew this was a possibility, right?

    1. 4vets
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 5 months ago

      This.

    2. Polaris - The Mortal Coil
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 5 months ago

      Precisely.

    3. davies
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 5 months ago

      So did Schlupp - he's starting.

    4. Hamstergod
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 5 months ago

      Plus Southampton have pace , which was the reason he was benched last time

    5. Kanye West Ham
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 5 months ago

      What about last gw?

      1. Reedy
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 5 months ago

        Was tactical then, I accept that

  23. Jax
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 5 months ago

    The Walker dead

  24. Ayew Serious
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 5 months ago

    Skrtel is keeping me a CS, bright side

    1. Ayew Serious
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 5 months ago

      His performance might have him dropped tho

      1. Shifty
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 5 months ago

        Thankfully lovren and kolo are worse

  25. ZTF
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 5 months ago

    Keep Mahrez? Surely this is because of an injury? Benching the best player in your squad by far two in a row would be insane

  26. Royal5
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 5 months ago

    Trippier debut

    1. Jax
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 5 months ago

      Hopefully he'll Trip up a pool player

  27. Nobodinho
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 5 months ago

    H2H rival has double Pool defence 😯

  28. Make United Great Again
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 5 months ago

    Gomez Mahrez > alderweireld Manè looks tempting next week. Exact funds for it.

  29. potatoace
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 5 months ago

    at this rate , simply fielding 11 and taking no hits will guarantee a green arrow.

  30. Jay_
      10 years, 5 months ago

      A: Dier(0) Kolarov(0) Richards(chel) Darmian(eve) Hazard(bench) Mahrez(bench) Aguero(0) +24

      Vs

      B: Bertrand Janmaat Hangeland Bellerin Mane KDB Costa (C)

      I think I can pull of this -24 with a plus 😀
