Tottenham Hotspur team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Liverpool

Sports Mole rounds up all of Tottenham Hotspur's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Wednesday's top-of-the-table trip to face Liverpool at Anfield.

The leaders face the champions in a mouth-watering midweek Premier League showdown on Wednesday as Tottenham Hotspur travel to Anfield to take on Liverpool.

Both sides drew 1-1 away from home at the weekend to remain level on points at the top of the table, with only goal difference keeping Spurs above Liverpool heading into gameweek 13.

There is a much bigger difference when it comes to the injury lists of both teams, with Liverpool ravaged by problems this season, whereas Spurs boast a relatively clean bill of health.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Tottenham's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the contest.
