Matt Le Tissier believes that the battle between Harry Kane and Virgil Van Dijk will hold the key in the Liverpool vs Tottenham clash.
He said, “I think the key battle will be between Kane and Van Dijk. If he keeps Kane quiet, then I think Liverpool win the game. However, we have seen how good Kane can be and that he can lift the Tottenham team on his own. He got a double last season and whoever comes out on top in that battle wins the game for me.”
“Liverpool’s wing-backs, mainly Trent Alexander-Arnold and Andrew Robertson, have been a key part of Liverpool’s success this season. The amount of assists they have between them has been impressive, so Pochettino must have a plan to stop them both – they have been pivotal to what Liverpool have been doing.”
“I think Christian Eriksen is a big part of what Tottenham do. A lot of the time you see Tottenham doing well when he is pulling the strings. He will be a key player, more so than Dele Alli, and has been very effective for Tottenham this season. His assists this term are quite high and Liverpool will attempt to shut him down pretty quickly I would imagine – he is the main creative spark in the side.”
