Andy Robertson, the former Liverpool left-back, will begin his emotional return to Anfield from the bench as Tottenham face the Reds in the Carabao Cup. Destiny Udogie has been preferred in the starting XI for Roberto De Zerbi's side.
Liverpool manager Andoni Iraola has made extensive changes, with 10 players rotated from the team that drew goalless with Fulham. Joe Gomez returns from injury, while Cody Gakpo, Milos Kerkez, Jeremie Frimpong, Alexis Mac Allister, Lewis Koumas, James McConnell, Trey Nyoni, and Rio Ngumoha are all handed starts. Giorgi Mamardashvili starts in goal.
Iraola acknowledged fluctuating performances are part of his squad's adaptation, stating, "I understand the frustration the other day because we were also frustrated." He added that the team aims for the style of play seen in their wins against Ipswich and Atletico Madrid, emphasising the need for consistency.
