Liverpool XI vs Tottenham: Confirmed lineup , injury latest as Liverpool have been handed a big fitness boost today Match...

Liverpool have been handed a big fitness boost today with Ibrahima Konate back from injury to face Tottenham.

Jurgen Klopp said after the West Ham game that Konate was left out at the London Stadium because he needed to recover from his recent exertions.

But Konate is not injured and has trained this week ahead of the visit of Spurs.

Naby Keita is back in training, while Diogo Jota should feature despite being forced off at West Ham after sustaining a blow to his back.

Roberto Firmino remains sidelined.

Klopp said on Friday: “Ibou will be back. I guess Naby will train today - I didn’t get the medical report yet, but probably. Ox is in training. No-one else [is back].

“We have a couple of players out, everybody knows about them, but on top of that from the last game... Diogo got a bad knock in his back but should be alright, we will see how that developed.

“Apart from that we should be okay.”

Predicted Liverpool XI (4-3-3): Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson; Henderson, Fabinho, Jones; Salah, Gakpo, Jota.

A plan for Mohamed Salah and Trent Alexander-Arnold could influence Ryan Mason’s team selection today as Tottenham head to Liverpool.

The acting head coach remains short of genuine options, with none of Spurs' injured players set to return to the squad for this game.

One potential adjustment is the return of Ben Davies to the starting XI in place of veteran Ivan Perisic at left wing-back, sparing the Croatian's legs and providing Spurs with more defensive cover against Salah, Alexander-Arnold and Co.

Dejan Kulusevski could also be restored to the front three in place of Richarlison after he impressed from the bench against United, despite a lively display from the Brazilian down the left flank.

Mason said he was pleased with Richarlison against United but when asked if he needed regular minutes to get back to his best, the interim boss talked up the importance of the squad.

“We've got a squad of players that we need to decide the best team to win a game of football,” Mason said.

“We felt Richy, with the profile of player he is, could help us and we spoke before about having a bit of anger and showing a reaction.

“I think Richy naturally is that type of player as he likes having a bit of physical contact and I was very pleased with his performance against United."
