da bet7k: Liverpool travel to Tottenham on Sunday looking to avenge last week’s controversial defeat to Stoke, whilst the home side are hunting back-to-back wins.
da 888casino: Spurs secured their first three points of the season away at Wolves with debutant Emmanuel Adebayor scoring in a 2-0 win. That was only Harry Redknapp’s sides fourth win in 14 games stretching back to the previous campaign. The Spurs boss made an astute call giving youth a chance in Thursday’s Europa League game against Salonika meaning his senior players will be fresh for the visit of Liverpool. The return of Ledley King to the defence is a boost with Michael Dawson facing a spell on the sidelines whilst the signing of Scott Parker from West Ham has added some bite to the midfield. The England man was terrific last weekend and could form a devastating partnership with Luka Modric with his summer transfer fiasco slipping to the back of everyone’s minds. Jermaine Defoe also looked back to his best up front with Adebayor and it looks like the Togolese striker could be the man to make Defoe flourish once more.
Kenny Dalglish takes his side to North London knowing they have lost 2-1 in each of the last three visits. A 1-0 defeat at Stoke last week was tinged with controversy but the experienced Scot will no doubt have his side focused on the task in hand at White Hart Lane on Sunday. Luis Suarez’s electric start to the season has set tongues wagging at Anfield whilst new recruits Stewart Downing, Jordan Henderson, Jose Enrique and Charlie Adam have all settled in well. It could have been so different for Adam who may well have been pulling on a different coloured shirt had his move to Spurs not fell through in January. His battle with Parker in the heart of midfield is sure to be an intriguing one. Jamie Carragher will be one player dreading this fixture having scored three own goals against Spurs during his career.
Tom Huddlestone, Steven Pienaar and Ledley King all face a fitness test before kick off but Michael Dawson is definitely out for the hosts. William Gallas, Aaron Lennon and Rafael van der Vaart all have a chance of playing after shaking off their injury worries.
Glen Johnson will miss out for the visitors after a recurrence of his hamstring injury whilst Steven Gerrard is likely to remain in the stands with Dalglish not keen on risking his skipper
Key Players
Gareth Bale: Hasn’t hit his top stride yet this season but is always a danger when running with the ball at his feet. Is likely to come up against the inexperienced Martin Kelly and will have the instruction to get at him at every opportunity.
Luis Suarez: The Uruguayan has become the heartbeat of Liverpool with his boundless energy and enthusiasm making him a menance to every defence. His pace and intelligence off the ball will cause the Spurs rearguard a whole host of problems on Sunday.
Verdict: 2-2
