Liverpool vs Tottenham LIVE: Premier League score and latest updates
Klopp launches attack on state of English football and ‘overworked’ Premier League

Liverpool’s title dream may be over but the Reds return to Anfield looking to restore some pride in Jurgen Klopp’s penultimate home fixture as they take on top-four chasing Tottenham in the Premier League.

Klopp’s side have won just one of their five fixtures in the Premier League and a 2-2 draw at West Ham last weekend saw Liverpool surrender their title challenge for good as Arsenal and Manchester City continue to pull away. A touchline argument between Klopp and Mohamed Salah threatened to turn the German’s farewell sour but the manager insists that the dispute is over ahead of returning to Anfield.

Ange Postecoglou was left reeling after a 2-0 defeat to Chelsea on Thursday night, Tottenham’s third loss in a row, as Spurs look to close the gap to Aston Villa in the race for the final Champions League qualification spot. The Tottenham manager was furious with his players at Stamford Bridge and is now under some pressure for the first time after admitting his team lacked “conviction and belief” in his plans.

34 min: Liverpool are playing the ball around the Spurs box as they probe for that second goal, which feels like it’s coming. Romero blocks a Robertson shot with his head, although a few Red arms appeal in vain for handball.

30 min: Anfield screams for a penalty for a trip in the box on Gakpo by Van de Ven. It looked like one, but the replay suggests that perhaps there wasn’t much contact and Gakpo made a lot of it.
