The Spurs boss could shuffle his pack again after another painful derby defeat

Ange Postecoglou faces selection decisions across the Tottenham midfield and front three for Sunday's visit to Liverpool.

The manager made five changes to his side for Thursday's defeat at Chelsea, including starting a whole new midfield three, but admitted afterwards "it didn't work".

Rodrigo Bentancur and James Maddison could return to the Spurs XI after being benched at Chelsea, while Postecoglou faces a choice between Yves Bissouma and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg at No.6.

If Maddison returns to the side at No.10, Dejan Kulusevski could push into the front three at the expense of Brennan Johnson, who was poor at Stamford Bridge.

Richarlison and captain Heung-min Son are likely to keep their places at centre-forward and left wing, respectively, despite also being subdued on Thursday.

Timo Werner (hamstring), Ben Davies (calf), Destiny Udogie (quad), Ryan Sessegnon (hamstring), Fraser Forster (foot) and Manor Solomon (knee) are all expected to be sidelined for the rest of the season, with Postecoglou to assess the rest of his squad at training on Friday afternoon.

Injuries: Werner, Davies, Udogie, Sessegnon, Forster, Solomon
