‘I don’t think it will quite be a case’: Lawrenson predicts the outcome of Liverpool vs Spurs
Liverpool will face Tottenham Hotspur in a top-of-the-table clash on Wednesday at Anfield and Mark Lawrenson has predicted a draw for this game. The Premier League champions are second in the league behind Spurs, tied on points and only separated by goal difference. Both the sides are heading into this fixture on the back of disappointing results over the weekend. Spurs managed a 1-1 draw in the London derby clash against Crystal Palace, while Liverpool were held to a 1-1 draw by Fulham at Craven Cottage. Liverpool were surprisingly poor in the first half against the Cottagers where they were completely outplayed by Scott Parker’s side. Lawrenson has suggested to BBC Sport that if the Reds repeat a similar sort of performance against Spurs, they are likely to be punished. The popular BBC p...
‘This is pathetic’: Some Liverpool fans react to what Klopp has just said ahead of Spurs clash
Liverpool will face Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League clash on Wednesday night at Anfield, and it promises to be a cracker. Only goal difference sets two teams apart at the top of the table, and Jurgen Klopp, the Liverpool boss has paid great respect to their opponent ahead of the match. Klopp has delivered the latest injury news ahead of the match, and there’s very little to get excited about for a Liverpool fan. The Reds boss has suggested that no one is coming back from injury, while the club physios are working really hard to keep Joel Matip fit for this clash. Matip picked up a back spasm during the game against Fulham and he was taken off in the first half at Craven Cottage. With Liverpool already depleted at the back, losing Matip at the back for such a crunch game would be a ...
French trio to start, 23y/o to retain place: Predicted Spurs XI vs Liverpool
Tottenham Hotspur travel to Anfield tomorrow to face joint-English Premier League leaders Liverpool, and manager Jose Mourinho will be keen to leave Merseyside with all three points. Spurs’ last victory at Anfield came in 2011 and they have won just once in their last 17 meetings with the Reds. Both teams have started the 2020-21 league campaign on an impressive note, winning seven games, drawing four games and losing one game apiece, and Spurs are only top of the table due to their better defensive record. Mourinho’s men have conceded 10 league goals – the least in the top-flight – and scored 24 goals, while Liverpool have shipped 18 goals and scored 27 goals – the most in the division. Liverpool’s attack and Spurs’ defence will both face their stiffest test yet tomorrow, and the game sho...
Report: Everton ready to raid Premier League club for 24-yr-old, Ancelotti an admirer
Everton are interested in a loan move for the Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Dele Alli. The 24-year-old is yet to start a Premier League game for Tottenham since the opening day match against Everton and it seems that he has fallen out of favour with Jose Mourinho. The Londoners have done well in the Premier League so far and they are expected to challenge for the title. It remains to be seen whether the England international can reclaim his starting berth in the coming weeks. According to the Mirror, Everton are prepared to make a move for Alli once the transfer window opens in January. Alli was one of the brightest young talents in England when Mauricio Pochettino was in charge of Tottenham and he needs to play regular first-team football in order to realise his potential. Furthermore, wit...

‘Real talent’ – Gary Lineker in awe of what Spurs ace did against Palace
Tottenham Hotspur were held to a 1-1 draw at Crystal Palace on Sunday after Jeffrey Schlupp’s 81st-minute equaliser cancelled out Harry Kane’s opener. The Spurs striker had put the visitors ahead 23 minutes into the game following a fine shot from 30 yards that left Palace goalkeeper Vicente Guaita helpless, but the shot-stopper was on hand to deny Jose Mourinho’s men on several occasions with some incredible saves. The Spaniard kept Tottenham at bay with three excellent stops in the opening 20 minutes of the clash to deny Tanguy Ndombele, Sergio Reguilon and Kane from opening the scoring, but he couldn’t stop the Spurs star from finding the back of the net after being caught out by a long-range swerving attempt. While Guaita could arguably have done better, Kane’s effort was too much for ...
Club-record signing to return, 25y/o to start: Predicted Spurs XI vs Palace
English Premier League leaders Tottenham Hotspur visit Crystal Palace today for another London derby, and they will look to maintain their position at the top of the table with a victory. Spurs haven’t lost a league game since their defeat at the hands of Everton on the opening day of the 2020-21 campaign, and they will be keen to secure all three points today to keep their title charge going. Palace ran riot last time out, handing West Bromwich Albion a 5-1 defeat and they will fancy their chances of giving Tottenham a run for their money with their attackers on top form. The Eagles have five victories, a draw and five losses in the Premier League so far this term, and we never know which version of them will turn up at Selhurst Park this afternoon. A fierce clash could be on the cards as...

PSG Set to Make Loan Bid For Dele Alli
Paris Saint-Germain are lining up a loan move for Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Dele Alli, according to Simon Stone of the BBC. After joining Tottenham in 2015 from Milton Keynes Dons, Alli became one of football’s brightest young talents, scoring 28 league goals in two seasons from midfield. The Englishman was expected to become a superstar a few years ago, after making it into PFA Team of the Year for the second year in a row aged just 21. Dele Alli scores a stunning goal against Crystal Palace However, things haven’t worked out the way he’d hoped, and Alli has now found himself struggling for minutes at Spurs, failing to make the matchday squad since the 6-1 victory at Old Trafford in October. Nonetheless, if any side can get the midfielder back to his best, then they will have a very us...
Report: Tottenham and Everton expected to scout 23-yr-old attacker today

A move to the Premier League could prove to be the ideal next step in Leon Bailey’s career. Working with manag...
