Stadium Anfield
Referee Paul Tierney (England)
Goal Scorer:
Liverpool
A quartet of Liverpool's absentees will not be seen again before the campaign is over, as Joel Matip (knee), Ben Doak (knee), Bobby Clark (unspecified) and Thiago Alcantara (muscle) - the former and latter of whom may have played their final games for the club - are continuing their recoveries.
Klopp also confirmed a worrying blow in Friday's pre-match press conference, revealing that captain Virgil van Dijk had not trained, so a question mark is hovering above the Dutchman's head for this one.
However, Conor Bradley (ankle) is now back in full training and is expected to be involved on Sunday, while Diogo Jota's hip problem should clear up in time for him to make a May comeback, but the visit of Tottenham will come too soon for the Portuguese attacker.
Salah and Klopp's war of words came after the former was again overlooked for a starting spot at the London Stadium, but with Klopp keen to stress that there is no bad blood between the pair, the Egyptian will likely be reinstated to the XI here.
Liverpool possible starting lineup:
Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Quansah, Konate, Robertson; Szoboszlai, Endo, Mac Allister; Salah, Nunez, Diaz
Tottenham
As far as Spurs are concerned, Postecoglou did not see any more players enter the infirmary on Thursday night, but he revealed prior to the defeat that Timo Werner (hamstring) and Ben Davies (calf) will miss the rest of the season with problems sustained in the North London derby.
The duo join Ryan Sessegnon (hamstring), Manor Solomon (knee), Destiny Udogie (thigh) and Fraser Forster (foot) on the long-term injuries list, and after making five changes at Stamford Bridge to no avail, Postecoglou should not shy away from a similar batch of alterations here.
James Maddison was among those to be sacrificed in midweek amid his loss of form, but the playmaker ought to come straight back into contention for the trip to Anfield, potentially replacing the ineffective Richarlison.
Tottenham Hotspur possible starting lineup:
Vicario; Porro, Romero, Van de Ven, Emerson; Bentancur, Bissouma; Kulusevski, Maddison, Johnson; Son
Prediction: Liverpool 3-1 Tottenham Hotspur
