Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has warned Tottenham's players to expect a "fight" tomorrow night.
The defending Premier League champions head to north London down in fifth having hit a difficult run of form, failing to win any of their last five league games.
"We will be really annoying and we will fight hard, be positive and be critical with the not so positive things," Klopp explained.
"I take the situation as it is and make sure we are ready for a fight and we will be ready for a fight tomorrow night. We cannot change last month but also I am not only a good weather coach, though.
"In this world we lose trust and faith far too quick. Either it is great or it is the opposite. but there are so many stages in between.
"I see them trying, them working, all that stuff and we are working as a team on solutions. It's a complex game and I love that about football."
The sides now prepare for the return game with Liverpool fifth and Tottenham sixth, a point adrift of the Reds but with a game in hand, and rather than act as a title tussle this is now more focused on the battle for the top four.
"We will give our absolute everything this season," Klopp added.
"It's not about defending a title or anything like that. This team has the potential to fight for a title this year certainly but if not we will try next year. With all the difficulties we have we try all we can."
