It's Tottenham vs Liverpool at the white hart lane . Tottenham Hotspurs ,who are currently 7th in the with 27 points would love to repeat last year performance when they defeated Liverpool 2-1 and move a place to six position just 5 points behind the gunners. Tottenham did not have a  significant start to the season but they have just won all of their games  in europa league which would give them strength and confidence when they come out to the stadium  with a thrilling atmosphere.While, the visitors wold be keen to spoil the party for the hosts and get to 2nd position just 2 points behind the leaders Arsenal.Suarez would be eager to score goals and continue his tremendous form by scoring 15 goals in just 10 league games.

While,Tottenham won both away games at Sunderland and Fulham 2-1 .

Team news

Tottenham manager Andre Villas-Boas will assess defender Danny Rose and midfielder Christian Eriksen over the weekend before deciding whether they should start against Liverpool on Sunday.

Rose and Eriksen returned from long lay-offs on Thursday against Anzhi Makhachkala, but Villas-Boas is wary of rushing them back into league action following their respective toe and ankle injuries.

Defender Jan Vertonghen is out with an ankle injury while centre-backs Vlad Chiriches and Younes Kaboul are doubts.

Meanwhile, Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard has been ruled out for up to six weeks with a hamstring strain and will miss Sunday's match at Tottenham.

Defensive midfielder Lucas Leiva, dropped for last weekend's 4-1 win at home to West Ham, is set to deputise for the England international.

Striker Daniel Sturridge and left-back Jose Enrique are still sidelined by injury but centre-back Daniel Agger returns after illness.   

Excepted line ups

Tottenham Hotspur: Hugo Loris;  Danny Rose, Vlad Chiricheș, Michael Dawson, Kyle Walker; Mousa Dembélé, Sandro; Nacer Chadli, Paulinho,Aaron Lennon; Jermain Defoe.

Liverpool: Simon Mignolet; Jon Flanagan, Mamadou Sakho, Martin Skrtel, Glen Johnson; Lucas Leiva, Joe Allen; Raheem Sterling,Philippe Coutinho, Jordan Henderson; Luis Suárez.
