MATCH OF THE WEEKEND
Tottenham vs Liverpool
Sunday, October 22 (16:00)
Sky Sports Premier League
The race for Premier League glory is well and truly on, with a number of teams fighting it out at the top end of the table. Manchester City and Manchester United have been the early pace-setters, but the chasing pack remain within touching distance.
Two of those challengers face off on Sunday as Mauricio Pochettino’s Tottenham welcome Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool to Wembley with both sides defending unbeaten streaks and intent on claiming maximum points.
Reds 9/4 for victory
Perennial runners-up Spurs recovered from a wobbly start to the season to rise to third place in the league and, thanks to the goals of Harry Kane, they once again resemble the team that was pipped to the title by Chelsea last term.
A win for Pochettino’s side will ensure they remain hot on the heels of the Manchester clubs and it would also be a severe blow to Liverpool’s hopes of breaking in to the top three.
The Reds have dropped points against Newcastle, Burnley and Watford, as well as suffering a heavy defeat to Man City, meaning that they are already playing catch-up. Klopp’s side are currently eighth in the division and a loss could see them slip further out of the running.
With plenty at stake for both teams, Sunday’s clash at Wembley is sure to be a tense affair, but with so much talent on display, there should also be an abundance of quality.
