Here's the Tottenham team that Thomas Frank has selected to face Liverpool on Saturday evening in the Premier League

Thomas Frank has made one change to his Tottenham side to take on Liverpool in the Premier League on Saturday night.

Spurs have lost once in their past four matches but that loss to Nottingham Forest at the City Ground was so poor that it has lingered around the 11th-placed side. Now Frank's side host a Liverpool side with some of their mojo back, although the hosts have had a rare six full days to prepare on the training pitches of Hotspur Way for the clash with the reigning champions.

Frank has 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 has swap Richarlison for Lucas Bergvall.

That appears to mean it could be either a diamond formation with Mohammed Kudus and Kolo Muani up front and Rodrigo Bentancur at the base of the midfield and Bergvall and Gray ahead of him with Xavi Simons at the tip. It could also be the Dutchman on the left wing with a midfield of runners or a 4-2-3-1 with Xavi or Bergvall on the left. The back four picks itself right now with the injury to Destiny Udogie.
