Liverpool vs Tottenham

Manchester City will now have the chance to open a three-point lead atop the league on Sunday.

Diaz is dispossessed by Royal and Kulusevski but after winning the ball back he is able to get off a shot and almost get the ball to Mane for a goal. One of the interesting transitions of Liverpool this season has been Sadio Mane moving to a central forward role when Jota and Firmino aren't playing. Emerson Royal and Ryan Sessegnon have had roller coaster seasons this year but they're all that Conte has at his disposal out wide in one of the biggest matches of the year. Jordan Henderson came close to creating a chance but no one was free in the box to knock it in. Following an interception in midfield, Kane plays a cross to Son but it's ruled offsides. This is a change that shows how short Spurs are on the bench at the moment. It's getting into a predictable rhythm now as Liverpool breaks finds Mane or Diaz and then Spurs stick with them to make a last-second tackle. But they came back into the lineup in such a big match and showed up when it mattered. Antonio Conte ensures that every player is as prepared as possible and it made a difference as those two players were critical in keeping the match level. Tottenham and Liverpool drew, 1-1, at Anfield on Saturday in a result that has huge implications for the top of the Premier League table. For Liverpool, while Manchester City has a game in hand on them and a match against Newcastle Sunday, the Reds have completed the hardest game remaining on their schedule still gaining a point. In the race for top four things are a little murkier.

Klopp’s team started with an intensity and confidence that was also evident in the crowd following another momentous week for the club. In the most demanding and unforgiving Premier League title race they have blinked first. Rarely have a team reached the Premier League summit in May accompanied by such ruefulness.

Liverpool are sustaining pressure well, and Fabinho is on top of every loose ball in midfield. 55th min: Son carries the ball well through the centre of the pitch, as Spurs look to counter.

It is a first I wasn’t looking forward to claiming,” Watford manager Roy Hodgson said. After the protracted sale sparked fears for Chelsea’s future, Blues boss Thomas Tuchel welcomed the takeover, saying: “It gives us an outlook, if terms are agreed and hopefully the process will be streamlined and go forward as soon as possible. “It was a terrible performance. “The dressing room is not flying, come on, but there are other games to play. Chelsea striker Romelu Lukaku scored his first Premier League goals since December 29 in the 56th and 58th minutes, the first from the penalty spot and the second a long-range effort. We just have to keep going.” The draw was also not enough for Tottenham in the race to qualify for next season’s Champions League via a top-four finish.

Klopp can call upon Jota, Milner, Matip, Keita and Origi from the Liverpool substitutes while Conte's squad cannot handle just four players being out injured, meaning academy youngsters Matthew Craig, Harvey White and Dane Scarlett need to take their place on the bench. Spurs battled away and it was an even half in terms of chances created by both sides. Antonio Conte has discussed what it takes to close the gap with the top teams in the Premier League. His shot is blocked by a Henderson challenge though. So who will Antonio Conte select in his Tottenham team to face Liverpool this afternoon? Antonio Conte outlined in his pre-match press conference ahead of this evening's game that he only has 15 players to work with until the end of the season.

Antonio Conte has opened up on the message he has passed on to his Tottenham players this week. That Tottenham are now all but guaranteed a top five finish - a huge goal difference swing aside - is something to take from the Conte reign but he wants much, much more and to get something from tonight's match would signal exactly what he can bring against the 'monsters', as he calls them, in the Premier League. Spurs dealt well with the pressure of the occasion and the crowd noise in the early stages and they've had their opportunities on the break with a better ball in the final third. Tottenham have defended well on the whole, their formation a 5-4-1 out of possession and a 3-4-3 when they look to spring on the break. Tottenham really need to leave Merseyside with points in the bag if they are to secure a top-four finish come the final day, especially with Arsenal having Leeds United to come at the Emirates on Sunday in a game which could potentially see them extend their lead.

Tottenham need a positive result against Liverpool tonight to stay right in the fight for a top 4 finish.
