Liverpool vs Tottenham team news

Tottenham’s Sergio Reguilon will miss the huge Premier League clash against Liverpool at Anfield on Saturday evening.

Speaking to Spurs TV after training on Thursday, Conte said: “Sergio is not available for this game, and I don’t know if he will be able to come back again, as there are only two weeks until the end of the season. We’ll see.

“Fingers crossed, there are only four games to go, and it will be important for us not to have big injuries as we try to finish this season in the best possible way.”

Jurgen Klopp would not commit on whether Bobby Firmino would be available for Liverpool vs Tottenham.

“I don’t know, but he is back in training, so now we have to make a decision about that.

“The foot thing didn’t let him do a lot. We had to let it settle and now we have to make sure that he has a few proper sessions. Obviously we have enough games still, so it’s very important that we have to make sure that we get him in the best possible shape.

“I didn’t make a decision but it might be possible, that it makes for him more sense just to train through the weekend and be then a big step closer for Tuesday, for example.

“But let’s see. Yesterday he was in training, was great.”
