Anfield roars: Liverpool’s full‑gas response to Tottenham threat

A 1‑0 deficit looms as Arne Slot unleashes a near full‑strength XI tonight in the League Cup semi-final second leg at Anfield.

Alisson is rested. In his place stands Caoimhin Kelleher. The back line of Van Dijk and Konaté remains intact, flanked by Robertson and young Conor Bradley, stepping in for the injured Alexander‑Arnold in the confirmed Liverpool lineup published by James Carroll on liverpoolfc.com.

Tottenham counter with maximum intent.

Antonín Kinský debuts in goal. Archie Gray slots in at right-back; Kevin Danso makes his debut at center-back. Davies and Spence complete their defensive quartet.

Bentancur, Bissouma, and Sarr form a midfield trio. Richarlison leads the attack, flanked by Son and Kulusevski. Mathys Tel waits among the substitutes.

This is a spectacle. Liverpool’s choice is clarity and dominance. Tottenham seeks grit amid a challenging injury-hit winter.  

With Ange Postecoglou’s uncanny knack for lifting silverware in his second season at former clubs, confidence is cautiously growing
