Overview
- Tottenham sit 16th in the Premier League, one point clear of the bottom three during a club-record run of six straight defeats.
- Igor Tudor has lost his first four matches in charge and told players they must choose to “cry or fight” as they battle to avoid the drop.
- Cristian Romero and Joao Palhinha are out under concussion protocols, Micky van de Ven is suspended, Yves Bissouma is injured, and Conor Gallagher has been ill but could be involved.
- Guglielmo Vicario will return in goal at Anfield after Antonin Kinsky was substituted in the 17th minute of the 5-2 loss to Atletico Madrid, with Tudor insisting Kinsky will play again in future.
- Pundits have condemned Tudor’s handling of Kinsky and his results, with some calling the decision “disgraceful” and supporters urging emergency action.
