Roberto Firminio is doubtful with a hamstring problem and Christian Benteke is definitely out but fellow forward Divock Origi is available despite missing international duty with a thigh injury.

Alberto Moreno is also pushing for a start after retruning to fitness while James Milner is back after serving a suspension.

Daniel Sturridge is priced at 6.5 (11/2) to open the scoring with a variety of firms with Philippe Coutinho a 9.5 (17/2) chance with Bet Victor.

The home win is widely available at 2.4 (7/5) with the visitors as highly priced as the 3.25 (9/4) on offer from 888 Sport, who have the draw at 3.45 (27/11).

Mauricio Pochettino’s side are second in the table and have the chance to close the gap between themselves and leaders Leicester City to just two points with a win here.

The North London outfit have kept themselves well and truly in the title race after winning eight of their last ten league matches.

Toby Alderweireld is set to play despite missing Belgium’s loss to Portugal with illness though Erik Lamella is out, as is Jan Vertonghen who is still not ready for a first team return.

Harry Kane is favourite to get the first goal of the game at 6.0 (5/1) with a number of bookmakers with Dele Alli a 10.5 (19/2) shot with 888 Sport.
