"Match to be played on Sunday 31st August 2014 at 13:30. Venue: White Hart Lane, London.  &amp;nbsp; #454198380 / gettyimages.com  Liverpool will be determined to react this weekend against Tottenham Hotspur after they were well beaten at Manchester City earlier this week. Brendan Rodgers&amp;rsquo; side head to North London with Mario Balotelli among their ranks and the Italian is likely to make his debut for the club whether that&amp;rsquo;s from the start or off the bench. We&amp;rsquo;ve attempted to name the side Rodgers could go with for the game. GK &amp;ndash; Simon Mignolet The Belgian has improved a great deal since he first joined the club and he will keep his number one place. RB &amp;ndash; Javi Manquillo With Glen Johnson and Jon Flanagan both suffering injury problems, Manquillo could be handed a start. CB &amp;ndash; Martin Skrtel Skrtel should keep his place in the heart of the back four. He&amp;rsquo;ll do the basics of no nonsense defending to ease the pressure on his team. CB &amp;ndash; Dejan Lovren Lovren should keep his place on the other side of central defence. Rodgers will be hoping for a slightly sharper performance. LB &amp;ndash; Alberto Moreno Moreno picked up an ankle knock in the game against City but he should just about be okay for this game. He had an impressive debut so Rodgers will be keen to keep him in the team. RM &amp;ndash; Raheem Sterling   &amp;nbsp; #454197542 / gettyimages.com  Sterling&amp;rsquo;s pace is going to be important on the counter attack for the Reds. He&amp;rsquo;s one of Liverpool&amp;rsquo;s players who can win this match in a second. CM &amp;ndash; Jordan Henderson Henderson is one of the most versatile players that Liverpool have available. He&amp;rsquo;ll play a variety of roles across the middle of the team. CM &amp;ndash; Steven Gerrard Gerrard has a big role to play in this game because his teammates will look to him if Tottenham get their noses in front. CM &amp;ndash; Philippe Coutinho The Brazilian is likely to play furthest forward out of the midfielders, consolidating in the number ten spot when Liverpool are on top. LM &amp;ndash; Lazar Markovic Markovic looked decent when he came on against Manchester City and he could start to give the midfield some balance and extra width. SEE ALSO: Liverpool fans react on Twitter to Moreno performance against Manchester CityST &amp;ndash; Daniel Sturridge We don&amp;rsquo;t think Rodgers will start Balotelli, preferring to trust Sturridge up front. The Italian could be introduced with a change of formation if the Reds need to chase the game.Do you think Rodgers should start Balotelli against Spurs?"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
