The Tottenham Lineup That Should Start Against Liverpool

Tottenham travel to Anfield on Wednesday night for their biggest game of the season so far - against Premier League champions Liverpool.

It will undoubtedly be the biggest test of Jose Mourinho's side's title credentials to date, and here is how he should line up his side for it:


1. Goalkeeper and Defenders

Hugo Lloris (GK) - The 2018 World Cup winner is the undisputed number one for Mourinho.

Serge Aurier (RB) - His place in the lineup was under threat by Matt Doherty early in the season but he's done very well in recent weeks and should get the nod here again.

Toby Alderweireld (CB) - The centre back looks back to his best under Mourinho.

Eric Dier (CB) - First choice at the back post-lockdown, Dier has been a surprisingly reliable option at the heart of the defence.

Sergio Reguilon (LB) - The summer signing has been tremendous since joining from Real Madrid. A must start.


2. Midfielders

Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg (DM) - The signing of the summer so far, Hojbjerg has been exceptional in the holding role. His distribution and positioning make him key for Spurs.

Moussa Sissoko (CM) - He'll start here to help nullify the Liverpool attack.

Tanguy Ndombele (CM) - The creative spark in the Spurs midfield, he has become a key figure at the club in recent months after a disastrous first season in north London.


3. Forwards

Steven Bergwijn (RW) - After initially struggling to get into the team, his work rate has seen him become a regular in the side in recent weeks.

Heung-Min Son (LW) - Spurs' top goalscorer so far this season with 12 in all competitions, his partnership with Harry Kane makes him a guaranteed starter.

Harry Kane (ST) - The best striker in the Premier League, Kane starts when fit and available. No questions asked.
