“Son not the only one: Second Tottenham star sidelined for Anfield clash.”

Liverpool could secure the Premier League title on Sunday, and the only obstacle in their path is Tottenham — making Spurs’ team news especially important.

On Friday, Ange Postecoglou confirmed that Son Heung-min would not be part of the travelling squad, a development that certainly boosts Liverpool’s chances.
But there’s even more good news, as highlighted on liverpoolfc.com:

“Postecoglou reported no new fitness concerns after Monday’s defeat to Nottingham Forest, meaning Son and Radu Dragusin are Tottenham’s only absentees.”

Not only are Liverpool aided by two key injuries for Spurs, but the visitors are also preparing for a Europa League semi-final against Bodo/Glimt on Thursday.
With European qualification on the line, Tottenham may be tempted to rotate their squad or substitute key players early, further tilting the advantage towards Liverpool.

All these factors improve our hopes for the weekend, with a massive prize on the line.
Although Arne Slot has some injury concerns of his own, Liverpool have a largely fit squad to pick from ahead of what could be a truly historic match.

It’s been 35 years since Liverpool fans were inside Anfield to witness a title win. Those lucky enough to be present, inside or outside the stadium, could experience a moment that has been long awaited.

Premier League games are never easy, and it will take a huge performance to get the result — but it’s fair to say the circumstances could have been tougher.

Let’s hope this weekend delivers memories that will last a lifetime.
