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

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

Spurs’ main objective this season is to finish in the top four of the Premier League table.

Liverpool are aiming to beat Manchester City, Arsenal and Manchester United to the Premier League title this campaign.

Both Spurs and Liverpool play wonderful attacking football and score goals.

And, Jurgen Klopp’s comments on Trent Alexander-Arnold ahead of the match will certainly encourage the neutrals in terms of seeing goals in the Premier League match.

Alexander-Arnold suffered a hamstring injury in early September and has not played Liverpool’s last four matches.

However, the England international right-back – described as a “serious player” by Real Madrid midfielder Jude Bellingham – has been back in training this week.

Jurgen Klopp on Trent Alexander-Arnold for Liverpool vs Tottenham Hotspur

Klopp has said that Alexander-Arnold could play for Liverpool against Tottenham.

The Liverpool manager told the club’s official website:  “Trent trained yesterday normal and will train today normal, and then we have to make a decision.

“He will be in the squad, I’m not a doctor so cannot make that decision, but it looks like he can be in the squad tomorrow and play.”

Good news for Liverpool ahead of Tottenham Hotspur match

I believe that Trent Alexander-Arnold being back in training is very good news for Liverpool ahead of the Premier League match against Tottenham Hotspur.

Now, I do not think that Alexander-Arnold will start for Liverpool.

It is unlikely that Klopp will include the England international in the starting lineup so soon after his recovery from injury.

However, I believe that even having Alexander-Arnold in the squad for the match against Tottenham is a boost to Liverpool’s chances of winning it.

After all, Alexander-Arnold is one of the best players in the world and could be able to make a huge impact as a substitute in the second half.
