Tottenham
Tottenham continue to deal with a ravaged defence in the festive period, as none of Ben Davies (hamstring), Cristian Romero (thigh), Micky van de Ven (hamstring) or Guglielmo Vicario (ankle) will be available for this encounter, and nor will Mikey Moore (illness), Wilson Odobert (hamstring), Richarlison (hamstring) or the banned Rodrigo Bentancur.
Timo Werner might be back from a viral infection, though, while Destiny Udogie - who came off early in the Southampton game - only missed the EFL Cup win on account of being "a bit sore" and should be fine to square up to Mohamed Salah on Sunday.
Udogie for Djed Spence - albeit an in-form Djed Spence - ought to be the only alteration that Postecoglou considers for this colossal contest, where skipper Son needs only set up one goal to set a new club record for Premier League assists, having matched Darren Anderton's tally of 68 last weekend.
Tottenham Hotspur possible starting lineup:
Forster; Porro, Gray, Dragusin, Udogie; Sarr, Bissouma; Kulusevski, Maddison, Son; Solanke
Liverpool
Liverpool's only selection concerns for Sunday's game also come at the back, but to a much lesser degree, as Conor Bradley (hamstring) and Ibrahima Konate (knee) are expected to be the visitors' only injury absentees this weekend.
Robertson is eligible to play again after serving his suspension in the EFL Cup, but with the Scotsman a shadow of his former self this season and Kostas Tsimikas now back from an ankle problem, it would not be a shock to see the Greek given the nod.
After enjoying a total rest in midweek, Salah could write another page of Premier League history; the Egypt international has already come up with 13 goals and nine assists in the 2024-25 Premier League, and he could be the first-ever player to hit double figures in both metrics before Christmas in one season.
Liverpool possible starting lineup:
Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Gomez, Van Dijk, Tsimikas; Mac Allister, Gravenberch; Salah, Szoboszlai, Diaz; Jota
Prediction: Tottenham Hotspur 1-3 Liverpool
