The Tottenham Hotspur boss needs to get his team back on the right path as Liverpool come to town on Saturday evening in the Premier League
Thomas Frank needs to breathe life back into his Tottenham side as they welcome Liverpool in the Premier League on Saturday night.
Spurs have lost one of their past four matches but that defeat at Nottingham Forest was so woeful that it knocked the momentum out of the team, who sit 11th in the Premier League. Now the north London side host a Liverpool side who appear to be getting some of their own mojo back but will be missing Mohammed Salah, Joe Gomez and Cody Gakpo for the clash while Dominik Szoboszlai, who has tormented Tottenham in recent years, is back in partial training with his role unknown.
The Lilywhites have had a rare six full days to prepare on the training pitches of Hotspur Way for the clash with the reigning champions.
Frank will be looking to rejig his team and that will mean changes to the misfiring side that lost at the City Ground. Spurs struggled to create chances with both Richarlison and Randal Kolo Muani on the pitch and the head coach could swap one of them for a winger such as Wilson Odobert, Brennan Johnson, who has been linked with a move away from the club. or Mathys Tel.
