Tottenham vs. Liverpool lineups, starting 11, confirmed team news, injuries: Why Robertson is back from suspension

Both Tottenham and Liverpool have had a tough last few fixtures since they each comfortably defeated reigning Premier League champions Manchester City.

Now, the tentative table toppers and their mid-table hosts will look to bounce back to winning ways in the EPL, at the expense of the other.

Spurs have frequently switched back-and-forth between ridiculous and sublime so far this term, and the upshot of such inconsistency is they are currently behind the ambitious expectations set by manager Ange Postecoglou.

Liverpool, meanwhile, had all the appearance of runaway league winners when a 2-0 success over Pep Guardiola's beleaguered City extended the gap between leaders and the winners of the last four straight titles to 11 points.

However a pair of draws in their last two Prem outings have not only allowed Chelsea to reel them in to just two points (although Liverpool retain an extra game to play), but Arsenal remain on the periphery as well.

Something has to give in North London on Sunday. So, how are the two squads looking?

Injuries continue to play a considerable role in Spurs' struggles to juggle a very busy calendar with their strong expectations. Ruled out for certain are goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario, defenders Ben Davies, Cristian Romero and Micky van de Ven, and attackers Richarlison and Wilson Odobert.

In addition, Timo Werner and Mikey Moore are both ill and miss out and Rodrigo Bentancur continues to serve his lengthy domestic suspension for a racial slur about teammate Son Heung-min.

Andy Robertson was able to serve his one-game suspension for a sending-off against Fulham during the Carabao Cup quarter-final win over Southampton and returns to the starting XI.
