Heung-Min Son of Tottenham Hotspur speaks to the press after their sides draw during the Premier League match between Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium

Liverpool have several reasons to fear a potent Tottenham Hotspur side on Sunday, but over the years they will have learned to fear one player more than any other when the two sides meet.

Indeed, Son Heung-Min absolutely relishes facing the Reds and has a goalscoring record that would concern any side.

The South Korean seemed to enjoy tormenting the Reds and former boss Jurgen Klopp more than any other side and while there is a new man in the dugout for Liverpool, Arne Slot is fully aware of the threat Ange Postecoglu's potent, if inconsistent, team pose.

And while he may be considered one of the nicer players in the Premier League, Liverpool still have reason to be sick of the sight of Spurs’ South Korean forward.

He has, after all, scored eight goals from his last 11 Premier League starts against Liverpool.

Yet for all his strikes, Son's record of results against Liverpool doesn't stand up to scrutiny.

And of course, that includes Tottenham’s defeat in the 2019 Champions League final.

Still, Slot will be all too aware that the South Korean is a danger-man who could deal their title hopes a big blow if he maintains such form on Sunday.

Now, a Tottenham Premier League legend, he boasts 169 goals from 427 appearances across 10 seasons.

While Firmino and Mane would help get Liverpool back into the Champions League, the addition of Salah contributed to their transformation into one of Europe’s strongest sides.

All three would win every major honour on offer to them under Klopp as the Reds were crowned champions of England, Europe, and the world.

And with Salah - like Son at Spurs - still leading Liverpool's charge, their could be even more glory in Slot's first campaign as Liverpool boss.
