Ian Wright believes that Liverpool will emerge with all three points from the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday.
The North London Derby was billed as Tottenham’s first big test of the season and Ange Postecoglou’s men passed the test with flying colours.
They stuck to their game plan of playing out from the back, had more possession than the home side and emerged with a deserved 2-2 draw from the Emirates.
Things do not get any easier for the Lilywhites this Saturday as they go up against another unbeaten side in Liverpool.
The Reds are sitting second on the table, just a point behind Manchester City, having scored 15 goals so far while conceding just five.
Could Tottenham’s curse against Liverpool continue?
Jurgen Klopp’s men have a good record at Tottenham’s home ground over recent years and Wright believes that they will hand Spurs their first defeat of the season, and keep up the pressure on Manchester City.
The Arsenal legend said on Stick to Football show on The Overlap YouTube channel: “Someone is winning that, I’m telling you. I think Liverpool win this one.”

Just like the clash at the Emirates, this fixture should be viewed as a free hit by Spurs fans, given our impressive start to the season. Having said that, there is no doubt that we are capable of hurting Liverpool and getting something from this game.
