Liverpool play Spurs this weekend, with each club in pursuance of varying ambitions in the league this season. Spurs are in the chase for the title, and hence this game becomes a must-win for Spurs. Liverpool are faintly in contention for a top 4 place, which took a beating after the 'defeat-from-the-jaws-of-victory' against Southampton....
