Joleon Lescott has predicted that Antonio Conte’s Tottenham Hotspur and Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool will play out a draw with each other at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium this weekend, as quoted in LiveScore.
Tottenham and Liverpool will lock horns with each other in North London in the Premier League on Sunday.
Former Manchester City star Lescott believes that the match will end in a 1-1 draw, adding that the injury to Son Heung-min is an issue for Spurs.

Lescotti wrote: “Heung-Min Son is ruled out of this one and that’s a hammer blow for Spurs — he’s so influential in these close encounters.
“Even without the South Korean, there’s no lack of individual quality in both camps and it’ll likely be a case of which marquee players turn up.
“I can’t split these two so I’m going to sit on the fence!
“Prediction: Tottenham 1-1 Liverpool.”
Who will win?
In our view, Tottenham Hotspur will eke out a win against Liverpool at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in the Premier League on Sunday.
Yes, Son is injured for Tottenham, but Harry Kane is scoring goals and is in good form.
There are injury issues at Tottenham, but Conte is one of the best managers in the world who can get the best out of the resources he has got.
We think that Conte will play a defensive game against Liverpool and hit them on the counter.
And Tottenham will win.
Now, of course, Liverpool are a very good side on the attack, but defensively they are vulnerable and that could matter in the end in North London.
