After a 1\u20130 defeat in the Champions League against Galatasaray, Liverpool will look to return to winning ways. With Arne Slot\u2019s side in striking distance of the top four, a win would greatly enhance their bid for Champions League qualification. Despite a recent defeat to bottom-placed Wolverhampton Wanderers, the Reds have been in consistent form throughout 2026 after a difficult spell in the autumn.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Spurs&#8217; form has been disastrous, and a 5\u20132 defeat to Atl\u00e9tico Madrid on Wednesday summarised their entire campaign. Igor Tudor has so far been unable to steady the ship following Thomas Frank\u2019s dismissal. Tudor has lost all of his first four games and now faces the task of gaining a positive result at Anfield. Tottenham remain in the midst of a relegation battle with West Ham securing a point against Manchester City on Saturday. Finding points of their own is becoming increasingly crucial as the Premier League season enters its climax. Tudor will hope that change starts today.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Last Word On Football brings you the Liverpool vs Tottenham confirmed lineups below.<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2026\/03\/06\/latest-tottenham-records-relegation-threat-crystal-palace-defeat\/\" target=\"_self\"><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><b>Team News Ahead of Liverpool vs Tottenham<\/b><\/h2>\n<p class=\"\" style=\"max-width: 600px\"><smartframe-embed class=\"smartframe_wp_element\" customer-id=\"1ffbae35d432d0d71911ca2a0b209fbb\" image-id=\"prsidxCICKHr\" style=\"width: 100%; display: inline-flex; max-width: 2700px; aspect-ratio: 2700\/1800;\" ><\/smartframe-embed><\/p>\n<h3><b>Liverpool Team News<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are no suspensions for the hosts.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Goalkeeper Alisson Becker missed the Galatasaray match with a minor issue.
