Sports Mole rounds up all of Tottenham Hotspur's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Saturday's Premier League clash with Liverpool.

Ange Postecoglou's unbeaten start to life at Tottenham Hotspur will come under threat when the Lilywhites welcome Liverpool to North London for Saturday's headline Premier League clash.

Spurs came from behind twice to snatch a point in a captivating 2-2 draw with North London rivals Arsenal on Sunday, as Son Heung-min silenced the Emirates with a brace.

Boasting 14 points from a possible 18 so far, Tottenham occupy fourth place in the Premier League table, two spots and two points worse off than their upcoming opponents.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Tottenham's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their showdown against Liverpool, who beat Leicester City 3-1 in the third round of the EFL Cup on Wednesday night.
