Liverpool
Arne Slot will be without Joe Gomez, who is still recovering from his hamstring injury. Liverpool are likely to shape up in a 4-2-3-1 formation vs Tottenham Hotspur, with Alisson Becker in goal.
Trent Alexander-Arnold and Andrew Robertson will start as the full-backs, and they will look to help out at both ends of the pitch. Ibrahima Konate will pair up alongside Virgil van Dijk at the heart of the defence.
As for the midfield unit, Alexis Mac Allister and Ryan Gravenberch will add defensive cover and control from the middle of the park. Dominik Szoboszlai will look to create goal-scoring opportunities for his teammates as the attacking midfielder here.
Mohamed Salah and Cody Gakpo will add creativity and goals from the wide areas, with Diogo Jota leading the line for Liverpool vs Tottenham on Sunday.

Pedro Porro and Djed Spence will start as the full-backs, and they will look to keep things compact defensively and hit Liverpool on the break. Cristian Romero will start alongside Micky van de Ven at the heart of the defence.

Liverpool vs Tottenham Hotspur Head-to-Head and Key Numbers
Tottenham's record against Liverpool at Anfield is truly appalling, something which should give Arne Slot's side a lot of confidence. Spurs have not won there since 2011, and have lost five of their last six visits. They've also conceded four goals in all three of their most recent games there.
Following Arsenal's draw with Crystal Palace this week, Liverpool only need a single point to claim their second Premier League title this weekend. If they can do this, Arne Slot will become the first manager to claim the league title in his first season since Antonio Conte did it with Chelsea in 2016-17.
Tottenham have now won just once in their last seven Premier League matches, and that win came against relegated Southampton. Worryingly, they have only won five away league matches all season.
Liverpool have been dominant throughout the 2024-25 campaign and have only lost two of their 33 matches. Interestingly, though, they have only scored more than three goals in three matches. One of those games, though, was their 3-6 win over Tottenham in December.
Tottenham are likely to have one eye firmly on their Europa League semi-final with Bodo/Glimt on Thursday. That means that Ange Postecoglou may well rotate his side heavily for this game, with key players like Mickey van de Ven and Dominic Solanke potentially looking at being rested.
Prediction: Liverpool 2-0 Tottenham Hotspur
Any Gooners pledging allegiance to Tottenham for a couple of hours should not get their hopes up, although all those associated with Arsenal surely gave up any chance of a phenomenal title comeback a while ago. As Spurs are prioritising the Europa League and have been nothing but abysmal domestically this term, a full-strength Liverpool should have no problem easing to the win that will confirm what has been inevitable for some time.
