Tottenham Hotspur team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Liverpool

Sports Mole rounds up all of Tottenham Hotspur's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Wednesday's top-of-the-table trip to face Liverpool at Anfield.

The leaders face the champions in a mouth-watering midweek Premier League showdown on Wednesday as Tottenham Hotspur travel to Anfield to take on Liverpool.

There is a much bigger difference when it comes to the injury lists of both teams, with Liverpool ravaged by problems this season, whereas Spurs boast a relatively clean bill of health.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Tottenham's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the contest.
