#2 Tottenham's attacking midfielders

Tottenham's attacking midfielders will need to be in form if they wish to break Liverpool's defence

If you try to find any weakness in this Liverpool defence, you will be left scratching your heads. Alisson has been like a wall that can't be broken, while Virgil van Dijk has seen zero men dribble past him.

But if one observes closely, we will find that Liverpool has struggled to deal with the third man run. A third man is one who can sometimes start the passing sequence, or on the contrary, he is on the blind side of the play and not involved at all when the run starts.

Manchester City's first goal against Liverpool by Aguero or Hazard's goal in the League game are prime examples. Tottenham have Dele Alli and Christian Eriksen as two of the world's top attacking midfielders. Both of them have the ability to beat their main and cause huge problems for Liverpool's defence.

The full-back pairing of Danny Rose and Kieran Trippier can stretch the play in wide areas and with Liverpool's fullbacks struggling to cover their ground every time for 90 minutes, there will be times where the Liverpool defenders or the midfielders would have to cover for their fullbacks leaving wide spaces in the middle of the park. Anyone of Alli or Eriksen could start the play while the other makes runs in the final third thus creating player superiority.

This would definitely lead to great opportunities for Tottenham to score goals and with their defensive midfielders blocking off Liverpool's attack, the club from Merseyside could be in huge trouble.
