On Saturday, Arsenal survived a late scare after a comfortable afternoon against Wolves to extend its lead at the top of the Premier League table. On Sunday, Liverpool and Manchester City will get the opportunity to respond.
Liverpool, of course, is set to play against Fulham at Anfield. While Spurs have a good record against Pep Guardiola's side, Manchester City is the favorite to get all three points after that at the Etihad Stadium.
But the Reds can only focus on themselves. With a big period of fixtures coming up, it needs to make a good start to a big week. After facing Fulham, a trip to Sheffield United comes on Wednesday and then Crystal Palace on Saturday in another early kick-off.

Jürgen Klopp will be missing five players for the Fulham game: Alisson Becker, Diogo Jota, Andy Robertson, Thiago Alcântara and Stefan Bajčetić. None are expected back any time soon, either, with Alisson likely to be missing until Manchester United comes to Anfield later this month.
Jota will be out for longer than the Brazilian, but exactly how long yet we are not sure. Meanwhile, Robertson, Thiago and Bajčetić are all long-term absentees.
