Fixture Focus - Spurs (20 Jan 10)



Liverpool FC vs Tottenham Hotspur








The postponed game from 10 Jan 10 will be played on Wednesday (or early Thursday morning our time), 20 Jan 10.

After a lacklustre performance against Hull City over the weekend, Spurs would be seeking renewed strength in this important fixture against the Red Merseysiders.

Why important, one might ask.

Easy, just take a look at the league table.

Fortunately for us, the blue half of Manchester has lost points for the weekend game, and so do Aston Villa who drew. Pool, also, lost 2 points over the weekend when Stoke stole the victory from them. However, these teams are still chasing behind us, with only goal difference separating us and Manchester City.

A win would be a big boost, in terms of points and morale, and to do it at Anfield, it is not a far-fetched dream.

Liverpool's Torres, Gerrard and Benayoun would be out of this game, and there goes the threat to our goal. Babel would be making a return to the squad, and we may see the likes of new signing Rodriguez coming on against us.

As for our visiting squad, Huddlestone is out, and O'Hara will be returning from his Pompey loan spell, prompting a possible bench start.

This would be a pivotable moment for Spurs, and this could very well be the game that could silence Pool's return to the top 4.

COYS!!!!!
