Mauricio Pochettino has named his starting XI to take on Tottenham in the Premier League clash against Liverpool on Sunday afternoon.
He’ll be hoping that his side can finally break his own personal hoodoo against Liverpool – Pochettino has never won a game against the Reds since he took over in 2014.
The team news was announced on the official Tottenham Twitter page ahead of the 4pm kick-off.

Tottenham did break one hoodoo last weekend, when they beat Bournemouth 1-0 in the Premier League.
That was their first league win at their new home at Wembley after a string of disappointing results including a 0-0 draw with Swansea and a 1-1 draw with Burnley.
Christian Eriksen scored the only goal of the game against Bournemouth and he’ll be looking for another strong performance against Liverpool this afternoon.
Tottenham are currently third in the league, eight points off Man City at the top with this game in hand. Liverpool are four points behind Spurs in eighth.
