Liverpool can secure only their second-ever Premier League title – and Arne Slot’s first – by beating Tottenham Hotspur on what could be a day of unbridled jubilation at Anfield.

Beating Tottenham Hotspur, by the way, is something few teams have had problems with during a traumatic campaign for an increasingly-curmudgeonly Ange Postecoglou.

Ipswich Town and Leicester City may make up two-thirds of the Premier League’s cut-adrift bottom three but both triumphed at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.



The Manchester United legend believes a 4-1 shellacking could be on the cards from a Reds side fired up by the prospect of securing the title in front of their own supporters.

Tottenham’s long-serving number seven – Jurgen Klopp wanted Heung-Min Son at Borussia Dortmund back in the day – boasts one of the Premier League’s more impressive records against Liverpool.

In fact, with seven from 19 matches, the South Korean superstar ranks joint-fourth for goals fired past the runaway leaders.

“You just need to give him some rest and some time off it and give him some treatment.

Both were subbed off at half-time during last week’s 2-1 home defeat by Champions League-chasing Nottingham Forest, Ben Davies and Kevin Danso taking their place.

However, those changes were pre-planned on the back of spells on the sidelines for both the Argentine and the once-Liverpool-linked Dutchman.

Over in the Reds’ camp, Arne Slot is hopeful Conor Bradley can play 90 minutes for the first time since November.

Though Slot is not giving up on having the England international back at his disposal before the curtain falls.

“If his recovery goes well, he would be able to [play] maybe in the last one or two games of the season,” Slot says.

We were just discussing Conor Bradley – it took him a while before he could even come in or have a long start.

“I think he [Gomez] will be available in the last one, two or three games if his recovery goes the way as planned.”
