Date : Sunday 31st March
Time: 4:30pm
Stadium: Anfield
Referee:Martin Atkinson (England)
Team News:
Liverpool may be without Trent Alexander-Arnold this weekend after the full-back pulled out of England's squad with a back problem, while groin injury victim Xherdan Shaqiri will also be assessed, as will Naby Keita.
The two-week break has given some of the Reds' injured players more time to recuperate, but this match is expected to come too soon for Joe Gomez and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, though both should make their comebacks in April.
Alexander-Arnold will be given every chance of starting, though, leaving just one or two big decisions for Klopp to make as Fabinho, Georginio Wijnaldum, Jordan Henderson, Milner, Adam Lallana and Keita are all battling it out for two midfield berths.
No player has scored more Premier League goals in 2019 than Sadio Mane, meanwhile, and he is very much the dangerman for Tottenham to look out for.
In terms of the visitors, Eric Dier picked up a muscular injury on international duty and will sit this one out, and replacement midfielder Harry Winks is also still unavailable.
Spurs will also make the trip to Anfield without Serge Aurier, another who was injured on international duty last week, but Kieran Trippier is back available and should start.
There is no doubt about the form and fitness of Harry Kane, who has been involved in four goals in four Premier League appearances against Liverpool at Anfield (three goals, one assist).
Liverpool possible starting lineup:
Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Matip, Van Dijk, Robertson; Henderson, Fabinho, Wijnaldum; Salah, Firmino, Mane

Head To Head
Liverpool have lost just one of their last 24 home Premier League games against Tottenham - a 2-0 defeat in May 2011 under Kenny Dalglish.
Spurs have been victorious in just one of their last 12 top-flight matches overall against this weekend's opponents, meanwhile, winning 4-1 at Wembley in October 2017.
The reverse fixture in September ended in a 2-1 victory for the Reds, with Wijnaldum and Roberto Firmino on target for them.
