Liverpool vs Tottenham: Preview, predictions and lineups
- Champions-elect Liverpool face Tottenham at Anfield on Sunday
- Reds need just a point to win the league
- Spurs prioritising Europa League with semi-final approaching
Liverpool need just a point to be crowned Premier League champions when Tottenham Hotspur visit Anfield on Sunday afternoon.
If Spurs are to delay the Reds' title celebrations, they'll have to do something they haven't achieved since 2011. The Lilywhites have forgettable memories of their modern visits to Anfield, and Ange Postecoglou's side recently succumbed to a 4-0 defeat in the semi-finals of the Carabao Cup.
The visitors have little interest in spoiling Liverpool's big day out on Sunday, with their eyes firmly set on Bodo/Glimt and next week's Europa League semi-final first leg.
Arne Slot is on the brink of guiding the Reds to their 20th league title, which will draw them level with Manchester United's record haul. After Arsenal dropped more points to Crystal Palace in midweek, Liverpool merely need to avoid defeat in front of their fans on Sunday to confirm the inevitable.
Here's 90min's guide to the clash.

Liverpool vs Tottenham score prediction
This has the makings of a procession for Liverpool, who certainly haven't appeared as imperious in recent weeks but haven't been put under any pressure by Arsenal.
While Spurs aren't going to lie down and let the hosts walk all over them, with former Toffee Richarlison among the players who'll be keen to get one over Slot's side, they surely don't have the capacity to spoil Liverpool's party.
This has the makings of a grand day out for the Reds, who will be confirmed as champions in style.
Prediction: Liverpool 3-1 Tottenham
