Ange Postecoglou’s Tottenham Hotspur will take on Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool in the Premier League on Saturday.

The match between Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool will be held at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

It is a tough game to call.

Both Tottenham and Liverpool are in good form at the moment.

And both Spurs and the Reds play wonderful football.

I expect goals in the match.

One player, though, who will miss out is Brennan Johnson.

Tottenham head coach Ange Postecoglou has made it clear that Johnson will not play against Liverpool on Saturday.

The 22-year-old forward is injured at the moment.

Brennan Johnson out for Tottenham Hotspur vs Liverpool

The Wales international – who has “got energy” and has “got pace”, according to Postecoglou in Football.London earlier this month – suffered a hamstring injury against Tottenham Hotspur in the North London derby last weekend.

Postecoglou said, as quoted in Football.London: “Brennan will miss out this week.

“It’s nothing too serious but it’s enough to keep him out.”

Tottenham can send a message with win v Liverpool

I believe that Tottenham Hotspur could send a big message to the rest of the Premier League if they win against Liverpool.

Liverpool have one of the best teams in the Premier League.

Jurgen Klopp’s side are back challenging for the league title.

So, a win against Liverpool would make everyone else sit up and take notice of Tottenham.

Spurs are doing extremely well at the moment.

And, in my view, Tottenham fans should be confident of the team getting at least a point against Liverpool.
