Leicester vs. Tottenham

Spurs turned in their strongest display of the season on Saturday, when they hammered Crystal Palace 4-0 on home soil. The challenge for Mauricio Pochettino's side will be to build on that result at Leicester.

The north London side played some sensational attacking football against the Eagles, with Heung-Min Son being the star performer with a couple of goals.

The South Korea international capped off a sweeping move with this excellent volley for his team's third of the day:

While Tottenham have earned points at City and Arsenal already this season, they've struggled on the road in 2019. Their last victory away from home came in January against Fulham.

Leicester will take confidence from that, and Brendan Rodgers will want to see a response from his players after they were beaten by Manchester United on Saturday. The Foxes were below par at Old Trafford, as their unbeaten start to the season came to an end.

Rob Tanner of The Athletic said Leicester didn't show the inventiveness needed to get back into the game after falling behind:

For both sides, this feels like a barometer match, with Tottenham seeking to keep pace at the summit of the table and Leicester looking to push for a top-six spot. As such, it's easy to see the teams cancelling one another out.

Chelsea vs. Liverpool

Liverpool are making Premier League wins look easy at the moment, after they continued an extraordinary run of victories against Newcastle to build a sizeable advantage at the top of the table.

The team Twitter account broke down how impressive their sequence of victories has been as of late:

Liverpool also shared footage of the team's third goal against the Magpies, with Roberto Firmino's flick releasing Mohamed Salah, who added to Sadio Mane's brace:

It's been plain sailing for Klopp's side in 2019-20, although the upcoming clash with Chelsea is set to be their biggest test of the campaign so far.

While Lampard's side remain a work in progress, they've been enterprising in their attacking play. Abraham has been the main beneficiary of that approach, with the young forward offering a potent threat at the top end of the pitch.

Opta's Duncan Alexander summed up how entertaining Chelsea have been this term:

The open nature of their games is also due to the trust being put in youngsters by Lampard. OptaJoe noted how well they're performing:

These two sides have met already this season, with Liverpool winning the UEFA Super Cup on penalties after a 2-2 draw on August 14.

On Sunday, though, the Reds will likely be better placed to capitalise on Chelsea's defensive woes and too strong over the course of the 90 minutes.
