Liverpool Face Test Of Title Credentials At Tottenham Hotspur
NDTV
Spurs are just two points behind Liverpool and claimed an impressive 2-2 draw away to Arsenal last weekend.
Liverpool's Premier League title credentials face a stiff test at a resurgent Tottenham on Saturday as the Reds aim to keep pace with relentless leaders Manchester City. Defending champions City have taken maximum points from their opening six games and can set a new club record should they extend that streak to seven at struggling Wolves. Liverpool lead the chasing pack, two points back, with Brighton, Tottenham, Arsenal and Aston Villa all within six points of the top. AFP Sport looks at three talking points ahead of the Premier League action this weekend.
