Tottenham vs Liverpool combined XI: Five of Jurgen Klopp’s side make the cut as John Barnes selects his team

Tottenham go into their Premier League clash with Liverpool high on confidence after a week that has seen the north Londoners get their first league win at Wembley and impress against Real Madrid in the Champions League.

Mauricio Pochettino's third-placed side broke the hoodoo of Wembley last weekend with a narrow 1-0 victory against Bournemouth, which preceded a trip to the Santiago Bernabeu - where Spurs secured a 1-1 draw with Real.

Toby Alderweireld, Jan Vertonghen and Hugo Lloris were among the star performers in Madrid while elsewhere on the same night, Liverpool were busy putting seven past Maribor.

Jurgen Klopp watched on as Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino both bagged braces as Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain finally got his first goal for the Reds.

But which team would dominate a combined XI made up of players from both clubs?

Bonus Codes Bets ambassador John Barnes selects his team exclusively for Standard Sport, which you can see below.

"A really solid keeper, second only to David De Gea in the Premier League. Was massive against Real Madrid on Tuesday."

"Not quite Kyle Walker, but he is keeping big signing Serge Aurier out of the side, and has improved leaps and bounds."

"The shining light in holding the Liverpool defence together, he has been an absolute steal."

“Tottenham’s most consistent defender and was a colossal at the back for them at the Bernabeu.”

“Solid, reliable and dependable. Rarely makes a mistake.”

"Liverpool’s best midfielder so far. Lots of energy, and pops up with the odd goal."

"Always busy and creating in Tottenham’s midfield. Has become a real goal threat from all over the pitch."

"Hit the ground running... literally... Liverpool’s most potent threat, quick, direct, and effective."

"The little magician! Most creative player in both teams and his form has proven why it was pivotal Liverpool kept hold of him."

"When fit, he is the most dangerous player on the field, and Liverpool have missed him even more than Coutinho when he's been absent. Quick, direct, dangerous."

"Alongside Aguero, the most potent striker in the premier league... a classic No.9 .... holds the ball up well, brings people into play, plays in the box, and scores striker’s goals."
