Tottenham facing Liverpool is the clash to keep an eye on once the teams return after the international break.

Two of the best sides in England face each other and even at this early stage of the season, the clash could provide a clue as to which team is better placed for a title challenge.

While Liverpool have won all their games in the Premier League, Tottenham were surprised by a sprightly Watford side losing the match 2-1.

Spurs had a 100% record coming into the clash against the Hornets and the international break will provide time to iron out the problems in the side.

Team news

Tottenham have a couple of injury concerns with Hugo Lloris and Moussa Sissoko missing the clash against Watford. The captain will not play with the French side during the international break but could make a return to the side in time for the clash.

Liverpool do not have any injury concerns at all as they look to continue their incredible run of victories.

Last season’s result

The corresponding fixture from last season saw Spurs hammer the daylights out of the Reds as we won the game 4-1.

scored a brace while Son Heung-min and Dele Alli finished the rout at Wembley. Tottenham would be playing at Wembley once again and it will be an interesting clash at the stadium.

Predicted Line-ups

Tottenham XI: Michel Vorm, Ben Davies, Davinson Sanchez, Toby Alderweireld, Jan Vertonghen, Kieran Trippier, Eric Dier, Dele Alli, Christian Eriksen, Harry Kane, Lucas Moura

Liverpool XI: Alisson, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Joe Gomez, Virgil van Dijk, Andy Robertson, James Milner, Jordan Henderson, Georginio Wijnaldum, Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino, Sadio Mane

Playing at home, even if it is Wembley will give Spurs a bit of a boost and the international break can be a great leveller as teams all start from zero again.

Tottenham will count on Kane to do the business but Liverpool have a fit and firing Mane to count on also.

Liverpool are slight favourites at 21/20 while Spurs are 5/2. A draw is 13/5.

 The two behemoths will go at each other for sure and in an entertaining clash we should see a 2-2 draw at Wembley.
