Liverpool team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Tottenham Hotspur

Sports Mole rounds up Liverpool's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Sunday's Premier League showdown with Tottenham Hotspur.

Liverpool come into their clash against Tottenham Hotspur off the back of a comfortable 4-1 win over Genk in the Champions League last time out.

Reds boss Jurgen Klopp took the opportunity to rotate his midfield, with Naby Keita and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain starting either side of Fabinho in the centre and impressing.

Klopp was also forced into several other changes due to injury, but the side retained enough quality to dismantle their Belgian opposition.

The Reds host a Spurs side yet to win an away game in all competitions this season.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up their latest injury and suspension news ahead of the contest.
