It will be billed as Salah vs Kane – but it still reads a lot like Liverpool vs Liverpool’s defence.
Virgil van Dijk was bought to settle that long-running feud, and he’ll be pivotal to plugging leaks when Tottenham roll up (4.30pm) .
But Spurs test defensive sea-worthiness like few other Prem sides.
All sorts of goals-galore angles leap off the coupon.
Liverpool’s last five homes have seen 23 goals. Spurs have scored in 32 of 35 games this season, and though their lucky gonk, Harry Kane, blanked against Chelsea, Man City, Man United and Arsenal, he did manage a couple in the reverse fixture.
But can two sides so brilliant on the press-and-counter produce their best style, head-to-head?
An unlikelier hero might have room and reason to emerge today.
Van Dijk , whose lively goal threat is being undervalued, can provide us with 90-minutes’ fun at the standout 9/1 (Fred) ‘anytime scorer’ .
Newcastle boss Rafa Benitez spent most of the transfer window moodily tugging on the wizened udder of his managerial cunning, and he’s come up with... ‘get big lad who might head crosses into net’.
Yes, it was Rafa what thunk it, and it could be a hell of a plan against flimsy flanked Crystal Palace (2.15pm) .
Sadly, Newcastle’s big idea, Islam Slimani, is a likely non-runner, but brilliant wingman loanee Kenedy will still be putting goals on plates for someone.
Jamaal Lascelles struck off a Kenedy delivery in midweek, and has scored in three of 20 PL games this season – yet he’s 14/1 ‘anytime scorer’ (Bet365) today.
Time to milk the bookies. Please wash your hands afterwards.
