Ian Wright believes that Liverpool will emerge with all three points from the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday.
The North London Derby was set to be Tottenham’s first big test of the season and Ange Postecoglou’s side rose to the challenge with flying colors.
They stuck to their plan of playing from the back, holding more of the ball than the home team and earning a deserved 2-2 draw against the Emirates.
Things don’t get any easier for the Lilywhites this Saturday as they face another unbeaten side against Liverpool.
The Red Devils sit second in the table, just one point behind Manchester City, having scored 15 goals so far and conceding just five.
Can Tottenham’s curse with Liverpool continue? Jurgen Klopp’s side have had a good record at Tottenham in recent years and Wright believes they will hand Spurs their first defeat of the season, while continuing to put pressure on Manchester City.
The Arsenal legend spoke on the Stick to Football program on YouTube channel The Overlap:
“Someone is winning this, I tell you.” I think Liverpool will win this match.

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.
