We said: Tottenham Hotspur 1-2 Liverpool

The big question mark hanging over this fixture will be what state Tottenham are in - will their two-week break leave them fresh or rusty? If the latter, they could be caught cold against a free-scoring Liverpool side looking sharper than ever in front of goal, although Klopp's men will not be at full strength either due to their own coronavirus issues. Even so, it is hard to back against the Reds at the moment and, given their formidable record against Tottenham in recent years as well, we are backing them to march on with another victory on Sunday.
