Tottenham Hotspur host Liverpool in the Premier League on Saturday.
Spurs suffered a humbling 3-0 defeat at Nottingham Forest last weekend, while Liverpool beat Brighton & Hove Albion 2-0 at Anfield.
Match preview
Tottenham have collected just five points from their last six league matches. They have also struggled at home this term, picking up eight points from eight matches.
While manager Thomas Frank still enjoys the support of the Spurs hierarchy, he must turn things around quickly.
Liverpool will be aiming for back-to-back league victories for the first time since September as they look to build consistency.
The Reds are unbeaten in their last five games across all competitions, with manager Arne Slot now favouring a 4-4-2 diamond formation.
However, the defending champions remain vulnerable at the back, offering Tottenham some hope ahead of this game.
Spurs versus Liverpool is the top-scoring fixture in Premier League history, making Saturday’s showdown one of the most exciting match-ups of the weekend.
